Buck Showalter told reporters on Sunday that he will not return as the New York Mets' manager next season.

Showalter's Mets were one of the major league's biggest disappointments this season, entering Sunday's games with a 74-86 record despite boasting the game's highest payroll.

He was named the National League Manager of the Year last season, leading the Mets to a 101-61 record and the top wild-card spot. The Mets, however, lost to the San Diego Padres in three games in the wild-card round.
