Dan Warthen is out as pitching coach

Warthen has been offered a different role in the organization, but has not yet indicated whether he'll accept it. The potential role has not been fleshed out, according to Alderson.

Mets RHP Noah Syndergaard came to Warthen's defense in the days leading up to his removal, but Alderson said Tuesday that with Terry Collins stepping down as manager, the club felt it needed to go in a new direction at pitching coach as well.
