Cohen backs Stearns, pledges to ride out Mets' five-year plan

New York Mets owner Steve Cohen publicly reaffirmed his support for David Stearns, saying Stearns will remain president of baseball operations for the full five-year contract despite a disastrous season that saw the team slump to 34-47 and Mendoza being fired. Cohen described Stearns as thoughtful and adaptable, emphasized a hands-off ownership approach, and indicated it’s too early to judge the plan’s overall success while also warning that changes could be on the table if performance doesn’t improve by year five. The piece notes underperforming signings and injuries as contributing factors to the Mets’ struggles.

Mr. Met Dances On-Air as Mets Fire Mendoza

The New York Mets, mired in a seven-game skid and fresh off firing manager Carlos Mendoza, went 2-1 to the Phillies as rookie Zach Thornton impressed in Andy Green’s managerial debut, but the awkward highlight came when Mr. Met danced behind Steve Gelbs during a live pregame segment about Mendoza’s dismissal; Gelbs stayed professional while players and club leadership reflected on a rough week that left the team 34-48 and 14 games under .500, 10 games out of a NL wild-card spot.

New York Mets Part Ways with Mendoza as Midseason Slump Continues

The New York Mets fired manager Carlos Mendoza at the 81-game halfway point (34-47), naming Andy Green as interim manager for the rest of 2026 after a season defined by a poor start and mounting struggles. The decision follows a franchise-worst slide since mid-2025, a 12-game April losing streak, and a tough loss to the Cubs that precipitated the move. With a high payroll and a roster overhaul now under scrutiny, the Mets may look to shake up the roster ahead of the trade deadline as they search for a path back to competitiveness.

Mets Fire Mendoza, Andy Green Named Interim Manager

The Mets fired manager Carlos Mendoza after a 34-47 start in 2026, with former Padres skipper Andy Green named interim manager. Mendoza had previously guided the club to an 89-73 record and an NLCS berth in 2024, but a disastrous 2025 collapse and this season’s slide—despite a top payroll—have them buried in the NL East and far from a Wild Card. GM David Stearns said the change is necessary to move forward and that it isn’t framed as a pure managerial problem.
