Per Betline, ESPN broadcaster Eduardo Pérez is the odds-on favorite to land the New York Mets managerial job. Betline gave odds to 11 potential candidates for the position.
Pérez stands alone at the top of the list at +300. He was the runner-up for the job back in November when the Mets hired Carlos Beltrán. Nonetheless, he did sign a long-term contract extension with ESPN after failing to land a managerial role in the fall.
Betline has Mets quality control coach Luis Rojas in second place at +325. Reports stated on Thursday that the Mets were considering Rojas for the job.
