3rd May, 2008 - 7:35 pm
ESPN - Mets manager Willie Randolph wants closer Billy Wagner to keep this critical comments in-house after he ripped fellow pitcher Oliver Perez following a loss to the Pirates, according to the Associated Press.

He criticized Perez for his poor performance against Pittsburgh.

"Perez has honestly got to step up and know that we've just used every guy in our bullpen the night before," Wagner said after the game. "He can't come out there and decide that, 'Gee, he hasn't got it today and so be it.' "

Randolph addressed the subject before the team's game against Arizona on Friday.

"I wouldn't go that route, but that's Billy," Randolph said. "Billy gets a little emotional at times. If he feels that way, it's fine. Billy doesn't speak for the team. That's just him. That's just his opinion." [READ]
