Beltran, inducted into team HOF, says no current interest in Mets job
Carlos Beltran wouldn't rule out interviewing to become manager of the Mets, a job he left before he ran a single game in 2020, but he didn't sound all that interested.
The return of Carlos Beltran to the Mets' managerial helm seems highly unlikely, at least for now. Beltran, who was inducted into the Mets' Hall of Fame, expressed no urgency in taking on the role again, which he left abruptly before even getting a chance to manage a game in 2020. This development raises questions about the team's managerial search and whether they'll find a suitable candidate to lead the team.
Beltran's comments come at a time when the Mets are looking to revamp their leadership after a disappointing season. The team's willingness to part ways with manager Buck Showalter and general manager Billy Eppler signaled a desire for change. With Beltran seemingly not in the running, the Mets will have to look elsewhere for their next manager. The question is, who will they target, and what kind of candidate will be a good fit for the team?
What's next to watch is how the Mets' managerial search unfolds and whether they'll consider other former players or external candidates for the role. The team has a rich history and a loyal fan base, and finding the right leader will be crucial in turning their fortunes around. Keep an eye on potential candidates and how they might fit with the Mets' vision for the future.
