SAR I Unfortunately, the Mets either were going to pay him less than he makes at MLB, or they really think there are better guys out there. If it's not Beltran, I don't know who they can sell to the fanbase. It can't be another bench coach/ pitching coach type guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philc1 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Beningo had a 2 hour on air meltdown over this i agree the Mets should have hired Girardi but who knows maybe Beltran turns out ok plus the bigger issue is whether the Coupons are willing to pay to resign Wheeler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
14 in Green Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I wanted Girardi, so I'm bummed about this. Perez or Beltran, both of whom seem to have the blessing of Omar Minaya the Mets equivalent of the cat with nine lives. Los Mets redux.

32EBoozer Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 BVW gets one shot to pick a manager. If Mets take a step backwards these next 2 years he’ll be replaced by a baseball lifer and we start the rebuild all over. I wanted Girardi but I could see him talking to the press if he fails to win just to get fired and move back into the booth. Beltran would work well with the young players and Cano. Perez is polished but not certain of his in game abilities Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Girardi, different story, having seen every game he managed, I can say he's a good manager, lots of winning, very few mistakes. But apparently the Mets are looking for more of the Aaron Boone type- someone who will follow GM's orders and execute the decisions of the analytics team.

When Girardi was 1st mention as a possibility for the Mets job some writer commented that the Mets prob. couldn't afford him. As the time dragged on I realized Joe had no chance with the Mets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was ego. Brodie was a famous flashy agent and now he wants to be a famous flashy GM. Girardi would have upstaged him.

SAR I Brodie is scared to death of an experienced, winning, old school type of guy like a Girardi, Showwalter, Matheny etc that wouldn't stand for his lack of knowledge about the game. Wants a puppet, like a Calloway or Boone. Not any more complicated than that. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustEndTheSuffering Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Girardi probably knew to go nowhere near that chair throwing idiot Brodie. Maybe Joe didn’t want to be under Mets management? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
