The New York Mets have filled numerous coaching positions this offseason. In addition to hiring Carlos Beltran to be their new skipper, the Mets have found new bench and pitching coaches.
But there was still another position to fill within the organization, and it was the manager of the Syracuse Mets, New York’s Triple-A affiliate.
Nonetheless, the organization has finally found their man. According to Jon Heyman of MLB Network, former Mets catcher Brian Schneider will be the minor-league team’s brand new skipper.

The former big-leaguer will replace Tony DeFrancesco, who was hired to be Beltran’s first-base coach.
