The Mets must really believe in Willie Randolph because they agreed to a three year, $5.65 million contract extension yesterday.  This is an interesting move and while I like Willie Randolph and the helm of the team, I’m also a little skeptical and think this is a big year for the franchise.  Yes, the team improved in 2006 but they also had a boatload more talent.  Then again, the Mets won the division for the first time in 18 years so it’s all good.  I can’t think of any better out there who could handle the team so the extension probably makes sense.
