Quote of the Day: Willie Randolph on the Mets [J. Mark English]

Courtesy of Matthew Cerrone's MetsBlog:

“Well, yeah, I never question the character of this ballclub. I knew we’d turn the page after last night’s tough loss. I told you guys last night we’d be looking forward to playing today – a nice bounce back win. And that’s the way we’ve been doing it.”…
…his earlier comments about David Wright and Jose Reyes being the organization's foundation, and how well they are both playing of late…
“Yeah, and it’s in real good hands, obviously – these kids are playing their butts off for us. Carlos is having a nice year, but to watch David and Jose kind of blossom right in front of your eyes is something special to see. And they’ll be even better, which is nice to know also…
“They’re the ones that kind of kick start us a little bit. Jose is on a nice little rhythm, he’s hitting the crap out of the ball - and David has been getting big hit after big hit for us.”…
