Anyone who lived through the 80's remembers the television show the A-Team and B.A. Barracus, played by Mr. T. "B.A." stood for "Bad Attitude" and right now, that's what Brett Myers is displaying.
Most people are showering him with praise for accepting his demotion to AAA Lehigh Valley, and to be fair, he does deserve some credit. But after reading statements by him [via the Inqy's Jim Salisbury and Todd Zolecki] in which he says that he misses being a "rock-star" in the bullpen and hasn't gotten his head back into starting, he deserves a fair bit of criticism too. On top of that, Phillies general manager Pat Gillick told Mike Radano of the Courier-Post about how Myers has failed to incorporate the suggestions he has received from pitching coach Rich Dubee about how to fix his game.
Between this most recent look inside his head and the previous ones, i.e. the night in Boston two years ago, you have to wonder if Myers ever will get it.
