Twitter Poll: Who’s to blame?

Last night was messy, there is no denying that.  From costly errors to questionable managerial decisions, it’s time for Mets fans to point the finger.

I asked my Twitter followers who is to blame for the loss.  Here are their responses…

ByronBrewer said: Jerry Manuel for poor management in the 7th

mostlymets said: Jerry Manuel. When Delgado couldn't start he should have used Church in right instead of Reed.

darknova306 said: Manuel. Feliciano vs Diaz was the worst matchup I've seen in ages. And you ALWAYS give Johan the chance to decide his fate!

saffir_99 said: Reyes. That play has to be made. It would have made Manuel's odd bullpen management a moot point.

jessicabrooke5 said: I blame Reyes.

metsjetsgirl said: Reyes. The Braves capitalied on his error - which should have ended the inning with the 1-1 tie in place

dances_w_vowels said: Jose Reyes. He had a mental lapse which lead to four runs scoring.

runningstorm said: has to be the defense or lack there of.

BergersBookRev said: Jerry Manuel is to blame. He never should have lifted Santana when he did. Ugh!

gwong said: Who else? Jose Reyes booting that grounder in the 7th did them in.

The jokesters…

metschick said: clearly, it's Johan's fault. Who does he think he is allowing 2 (unearned) R? And then he doesn't even hit a HR?!

kevin_tor said: Myself, for thinking the Mets were going to win before the game started. It's always better to doubt and be surprised.

helfejoh said: george bush

CT_RichEnglish said: Omar, for letting Boras talk him into Perez over Lowe!

Seems Jerry Manuel is the most “popular” choice.  The Pedro Feliciano vs. Matt Diaz move just doesn’t make sense to me.

Tweet of the day: metschick said: clearly, it's Johan's fault. Who does he think he is allowing 2 (unearned) R? And then he doesn't even hit a HR?!
