Sure sounds like Mets are moving on to Plan C - Alderson acts as POBO for another year, and hires a GM.
Ferreira sounds intriguing. EVP with a successful organization with whom she's been with for over 2 decades. Works with Chaim Bloom
Which he wouldn’t have been doing here- let it go
Yup. There are some players who just cannot produce in New York or need different coaching for their development. He is one of them.
I for one cannot help but look back wistfully on what might have been, if only the Mets had kept Guillermo Heredia and his 75 OPS+.
Maybe not you (idk), but I wish people here would do the same about a certain folk hero whos elsewhere now lol.
Baseball Reference includes it in their stat lines for each player. I am sure other sites do as well.
Are you referring to a certain Seattle Mariner? Sorry, I can't let that one go. I know I should, and perhaps someday I will. But not now, not yet. Too soon.
Certainly no surprise, although I thought maybe they'd keep him around in a lesser role. Perhaps they yet may.
Zach - this drink is for you.....:) Talking about drinking away a dream job and career......ugh
Thanks for informing us that the Mets were having difficulties filling their executive positions. I don't think any of us were aware of that.Not sounding good for the Mets:
Think Yankees are stuck in neutral? Steve Cohen’s Mets are going backwards ... and he’s flooring it | Klapisch
It's been a year since billionaire Steve Cohen bought the New York Mets from the Wilpon family. Nothing seems to have changed.www.nj.com
The Mets currently are so dysfunctional they make the Yankees look like movers and shakers. And say what you will about Steinbrenner, at worst he’s an invisible owner. Cohen, by contrast, has shown signs of being as meddlesome and tone-deaf as Wilpon, according to people who’ve interacted with him.
At this point it’s no longer possible to say it’s just coincidence that everyone keeps swiping left on the Mets. Crazy, isn’t it? Flushing should’ve been an attractive destination for someone, at least one of the game’s younger general managers. Think: Matt Arnold (Brewers) or Scott Harris (Giants), who could’ve inherited beautiful Citi Field, the successful SNY network, not to mention access to Cohen’s dollars for the rebuilding project.
Both said “no thanks” this week.
100% - I have never seen so many team deny permission to people for a promotion. And these have been teams that are not even competitors. I can understand a Philly/Wash/Atl not allowing it but the Brewers?
Not a mystery why this is happening. Cohen seems to be a jerk and likes to mouth off on social media (which other owners don't like).
My guess is that Cohen comes across to the other owners like the Rodney Dangerfield character in Caddyshack, while they are a bunch of Ted Knights.
I think there is a hit job after Steve Cohen after this Buster Olney response to a tweet that showed how horrible Zack Scott was as Interm GM:
No action in The Dead Zone? I guess a Mets fan posted in the Yankee thread so you have permission to post here, lol What page has your teams thread fallen down to, I can't even find it?Not sounding good for the Mets:

Very far, esp with “collusion” within other front offices to not allow their personnel interview with the Mets and national writers saying the Mets should never have fired Zack Scott after his DUI.How far behind are the NY Mets from the World Series champion Atlanta Braves?

Are the Mets really far behind the Braves, who just won the World Series? Here is how the team can make up the ground.www.mycentraljersey.com
Mets fans are so weird. The day will never come when Yankees fans will be bragging about the Bosux or Rays winning a World Championship.
But Yankee fans are so worried about how fans of some insignificant team in Queens think of them that they go on the Mets threads so that they won’t be forgotten.
I can't get through to you guys that you're encouraging someone who is coming here just to provoke a response. Stop answering him if you want him to go away.
