A rival GM predicted Mets will hire pitching coach candidate Jeremy Hefner, and said he wanted Hefner too but it didn’t work out

Hefner spent only two seasons in the majors during his playing career. Both of which he spent with the Mets in 2012 and 2013. During the 2013 season, Hefner tore his UCL and had Tommy John surgery. Something his career couldn’t rebound from.
