Palladino: Mets’ Longest Managerial Tenure May Be Collins’ Final Achievement

If Terry Collins doesn’t just up and say “I’m getting to old for this garbage” before Saturday’s meeting with the Angels, he will surpass Davey Johnson as the Mets’ longest-tenured manager.

At this point, it’s only 50-50 he makes it.

Just kidding. We have no source indicating Collins is headed out the door. To anyone’s knowledge, there are no high-level meetings between Jeff Wilpon and Sandy Alderson concerning Collins’ job security for the remainder of this mess of a 2017 season.

It’s just that one wonders how much a 68-year-old manager who has now seen everything and anything will want to continue in a season headed downhill fast.
