Pressure cooker
The media likes to talk about the pressure that comes with playing in the big city, and love to ask if new players will be able to adjust to the bright lights of New York.
Today, it's been fashionable to ask if Beltran, who just came off one of the most impressive runs in recent postseason history, will be able to handle playing at Shea. But it looks like the first victim of too much media pressure is the Big Unit - he and his handlers snapped today.
Good start Randy, maybe he should get on the phone with Chad Pennington to learn about the graceful way to handle the NY media.
