Wagner says he's ready -- and wants an apology
Billy Wagner proclaimed that he's ready for duty tonight should the Mets need his services in the ninth inning. But after delivering that news, Wagner added that he was angry with New York Times' columnist William C.Rhoden for allegedly misrepresenting his statements in this column following Tuesday's brutal loss to the Phillies.
When asked which part irritated him, Wagner reached into his locker and pulled out of copy of the Times' sports section, then read the passage. As soon as he did that, Wagner said he wanted Rhoden to stand at his locker and apologize to him -- and all of his teammates.
Rhoden was not in attendance today, but I don't see that happening.

what the hell is Wagner whining about? News for you, Billy, columnists get paid to write opinions. Stop acting like a spoiled, entitled brat for once.
And columnists are also journalists, who get paid to reprint quotes and statements correctly. That is what Wagner seems to take issue with. Not the opinion of some fat bald reporter who never played the game.
When the columnist said that Delgado should be a Captain is when I question his opinion.
