As of this past Thursday, the New York Mets are without a manager. Carlos Beltrán decided to step down amid the sign-stealing scandal, which he took part in while playing with the Houston Astros in 2017. The Mets had just hired Beltrán to be their new skipper in early November.
The ballclub will now undergo their second managerial search in just a few months. One of the names that’s floated around as a potential candidate for the job is 70-year-old Dusty Baker. He’s an intriguing option, being that he’s won three Manager of the Year Awards.
