Empty vows, Alderson back-stab: Inside Mets’ GM search mess

The most important questions the Mets should be asking in their interview process for a new general manager are to themselves.

Are they sure they know what they are offering?

Are they sure they know what they want?

The Mets are nearing conclusion of a first wave of interviews to find a successor to Sandy Alderson and are expected to pare to three-ish candidates for a second round.

While not commenting publicly, what the Mets want circulated is that they are unified in this process and that the person who emerges will have autonomy. But saying this does not make it true.
