New York Mets legend Edgardo Alfonzo reportedly hoped for a promotion prior to his eventual New York Mets dismissal.

According to Mike Puma of the New York Post, just before Edgardo Alfonzo’s firing in October, he thought he might be promoted.

“I thought I might get promoted a little bit because we won the championship,” Alfonzo told Puma.

Alfonzo, Puma writes, “Said he never received a real explanation for his ouster from general manager Brodie Van Wagenen.” Now, even as the team has announced that Alfonzo will be inducted into the Mets Hall of Fame in May, Puma reports that Alfonzo is hoping to find a job with another organization.
