David Stearns has done an excellent job leading the Milwaukee Brewers. The New York Mets have taken notice of that.
It seems like every fall for the past two or three years, there’s reports that other teams are interested in having David Stearns lead their baseball operations departments. The problem is, he is currently under the Brewers employ and they very much like to keep it that way.
Mark Attanasio has blocked previous attempts by other teams to interview Stearns for their vacant positions and has since promoted Stearns and extended his contract, likely with a pay raise.
