On Wednesday morning The Athletic reported that now former New York Mets hitting coordinator, Ryan Ellis was fired “quietly” last month. His removal from the team came at around the same time Jared Porter was fired for sending explicit and revealing images to a reporter during his time with the Cubs.
This news leaves yet another stain on what has been an up and down offseason for the new regime, headlined by Steve Cohen and Sandy Alderson.
The actions of Mickey Callaway, Jared Porter, and now Ryan Ellis are inexcusable, those actions by anyone, famous or not are inexcusable and should be condemned by everyone.
