Memo to Jeff Wilpon: Hire Ron and Keith!!!!!

The Mets finally announced that Omar Minaya and Jerry Manuel are out as GM and manager. Not a major surprise. But what should be a major surprise is the new hires for the position. In our return to the blog, Benched NY says that the Wilpon’s should stop scratching their asses do something bold! The Mets should hire Keith Hernandez and Ron Darling to help run the on the field team! Here’s why:

1. They know how to win.
2. They know the Mets (ahem) talent.
3. The fans will love it.
4. They won’t be too afraid to challenge the Wilpon’s.
5. They know how to deal with the New York media.

Since Ronny D. doesn’t mind travelling, let him be the manager and Cool Keith be the GM. Or vice versa. It doesn’t really matter. It only matters that the Mets head over to SNY and hire them immediately.
