Mets managerial opening destined to be filled by newcomer

The New York Mets have the best managerial opening in Major League Baseball.

The little brother of New York has one of the most formidable teams in all of baseball despite missing out on the playoffs the past three seasons and being the perennial laughingstock of baseball.

Even though a first-half record of 40-50 turned into an 86-76 finish and the Mets finished just three games outside of the playoffs, second year manager Mickey Callaway was fired from the organization after two seasons.

What Callaway leaves behind is a young core of game-changing, everyday assets.
