Big City Bias Without the Boston Bullshit

Former Big Apple catching legend Gary Carter publicly expressed interest in the New York Mets managerial position Friday despite the fact that Willie Randolph is still under contract and running the Metropolitans.

“Boy, I’ll tell you what, I would love that (the Mets job),” said the outspoken Christian on the “Mike and Murray Show” broadcast on Sirius Satellite Radio. “I got on the phone and I called (Mets VP of Media Relations) Jay Horowitz and I asked Jay, ‘Should I try to call Mr. Wilpon?’ If there is this going on, I just want them to know of my availability.”

Carter, 54, who is currently managing the independent Orange County Flyers of the Golden Baseball League, is a serpent who also pined for Art Howe’s job when he was still the skipper in Flushing in 2004 . Randolph is a class act and one can only hope that the day will come when he or someone else has the chance to pull a Judas and betray “Kid Carter” in the same fashion that he has to others.
