After playing terrible ball for the most part since the All-Star break, since being on pace to set a new record for futility at home in the 2nd half of the season, after falling far out of the wild card chase you would think that Mets manager Terry Collins, known in his early days for having a  bit of a temper, would explode at his Mets
