New York Mets hire interim manager Andy Green for full-time job, giving him 3-year contract

  • On Tuesday, the New York Mets named interim manager Andy Green their full-time manager on a three-year contract. The decision removes his interim tag just before the team opens a series against the Texas Rangers.
  • Following an ugly 34-47 start, the club promoted Green after firing manager Carlos Mendoza in late June. The team had struggled despite high expectations and a significant payroll featuring Juan Soto, Francisco Lindor, and Bo Bichette.
  • Despite trading away Freddy Peralta, Clay Holmes, Tyrone Taylor, Luke Weaver, and David Peterson ahead of the August 3 deadline, the Mets posted a 37-38 record under Green. The improvement came despite roster depletion.
  • Green previously managed the San Diego Padres from 2016 until 2019, compiling a 274-366 overall record without playoff success. The Mets are providing him a second opportunity as a full-time manager.
  • Mets President of Baseball Operations David Stearns will focus on bolstering the roster for the 2027 campaign as the team finishes 2026 against the Texas Rangers and Washington Nationals. The organization opted against conducting a managerial search this offseason.
