The prospect of the New York Mets hiring agent Brodie Van Wagenen as general manager has alarmed a number of players, according to players association executive director Tony Clark.
"I won't tell you how many calls or how many texts I have gotten," Clark said Friday before Game 3 of the World Series in Los Angeles. "I will simply suggest to you that our membership is paying attention."
Van Wagenen, whose division at CAA represents Mets players Jacob deGrom, Yoenis Cespedes, Noah Syndergaard and Todd Frazier, is reportedly a finalist to replace Sandy Alderson as GM.
