I think Winker will be fine, but he’s like a little brother trying to be Joey Votto, who messes with the fans and talks back to umps, but he’s trying too hard and hasn’t been around long, so it’s a little off.

I have to say after the impressive first to third on a single the other night and the SB today Lorenzen is easily the best athlete on the team.
if he wanted to play out the rest of his AB, whatever would have happened, and then said something to the ump, then I don't think anyone would have had a problem with it. I have zero issue with arguing with an umpire. I quite enjoyed his waving and interacting with Mets fans. I have a problem with taking yourself out of a 1-0 game in the middle of your at-bat when his presence in the game could have made a difference.
