Green gone, Mayfield in - smart move?
OK, admittedly, I'm not a fan of either one of these drivers and it's their choice as to who they want to drive the car, but Mayfield? Green has kept the car in the top 35 (31st in owner points as of now), which guarantees them in the race, so why the immediate switch? Do they really think Mayfield is going to get them higher? I don't, in fact there is a possibility that they could drop out of the top 35 by the end of the season. I think their problem is more equipment and driver, not just driver and they seem to want to pin it all on Green. I guess we'll see by the end of the season if they can stay in the top 35 or not.
With Mayfield out of the 36, there will be two drivers "filling in", Mike Skinner will drive Atlanta and Texas and Benson will drive Phoenix and Homestead, I think they'll have a better chance of making the races with them. As far as what will happen next year is up in the air as it seems like Davis is selling the team.
Your thoughts?

Hell NOOOOOOO this ain't good for business!!! My god talk to Roger Penske and Ray Evernham!!! Whoa god this is bad business.
This guy is a ticking time bomb waiting to explode on his team owner, teammates, crew and whoever else stands in his egotistical path to racing stardom.
The best question to ask now is " HOW LONG BEFORE JM STARTS BLAMING HAAS FOR BEING A DEADBEAT OWNER THAT WON"T GIVE HIM EQUAL EQUIPMENT AS SAUTER, AND IS DATING ANOTHER DRIVER?"

It seems to me that they traded one loser for another.
