Mets moving closer to naming next manager

HOUSTON — The World Series was to end Wednesday night and that brought the Mets closer to concluding their managerial search.

Nationals first-base coach Tim Bogar is the lone finalist who has not received a third interview, which mainly revolved around meeting with Fred Wilpon. Bogar’s Nationals were playing in Game 7 on Wednesday night and the expectation is that he would be in to see the Mets owner before the end of this week.

Carlos Beltran, ESPN’s Eduardo Perez and Twins bench coach Derek Shelton already have had their face-to-face discussions with Wilpon, The Post has learned.
