Former Yankees’ All-Star praises two of the Mets’ managerial candidates

The New York Mets are in the process of interviewing the three finalists for the manager position for a second time this week, with a decision expected by the weekend. Having a good skipper leading the team is extremely important, and the organization knows that, which is why they are taking their time.

As of now, the three finalists are Buck Showalter, Joe Espada, and Matt Quatraro. The first one has been managing big league teams since 1992, while the latter are part of the “new wave” of managerial prospects and haven’t had their first opportunity in the majors yet.
