The New York Mets have fired manager Carlos Mendoza. The move comes during a difficult stretch for the team.
Mendoza had been the Mets manager since the 2024 season. The club struggled this year with a record that placed them near the bottom of their division. The team dealt with injuries and inconsistent results on the field.
Andy Green has been named interim manager for the rest of the 2026 season. Green previously worked in the Mets organization and has experience in coaching roles.
Owner Steve Cohen and the front office, including president of baseball operations David Stearns, made the decision. The Mets continue to look for ways to improve their performance in the National League East.
