The Mets don’t plan to bring back pitching coach Dan Warthen according to the New York Post. Warthen has been with the team since 2008, the longest tenure of anyone on the Mets’ coaching staff. He built a reputation as a good teacher and even gained notoriety for a signature pitch. But the team appears primed to make a change as the staff languishes with a 5.01 ERA, the third-worst in all of baseball.
You can’t tell from their record, but the Mets were thought of as a contender when the season began in April.
