New York Mets owner Steve Cohen to expand front office

New York Mets owner Steve Cohen has announced plans to expand the team’s front office to support President of Baseball Operations David Stearns. Following two seasons of underperformance, Cohen intends to add senior advisors, special assistants, or vice presidents to provide more diverse perspectives on talent evaluation and organizational processes.

In a related development, the Mets have named Andy Green as their full-time manager. Green, who previously served as vice president for player development, has held an interim role following the dismissal of Carlos Mendoza.

Meanwhile, speculation is growing regarding the future of manager Alex Cora. Following his departure from the Boston Red Sox, Cora is being linked to the Philadelphia Phillies, where he may reunite with president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski. While the Mets were previously considered a candidate due to Cohen’s resources, the appointment of Green has positioned the Phillies as favorites to pursue Cora during the winter.
