Overview
- David Stearns said Monday that Andy Green is expected to rejoin the Mets’ player-development department after the 2026 season and that there is no current plan to name him the full‑time manager.
- Owner Steve Cohen told reporters Wednesday that he is committed to Stearns and praised the club’s trade-deadline activity while also conceding the team “might’ve taken too much risk” with roster and coaching changes.
- The Mets sold pieces at the Aug. 3 trade deadline to replenish the farm system and have since added prospects such as Émilien Pitre, Billy Amick and others while the big-league club has enjoyed a post-deadline surge.
- Stearns said Juan Soto and closer Devin Williams have uncertain return timetables but the Mets’ aim is to have both back this season if they become healthy enough to play.
- Short-term roster moves include Christopher Morel’s promotion and Ronny Mauricio remaining in Triple-A to get regular at-bats, a pattern that reflects the team’s shift toward developing younger players for 2027.
