I'm glad the Mets hired Mickey Callaway to be their manager. He was the right choice. However, it's so far been an up-and-down experience for him running his team -- especially this past week.
In the wake of the Mets putting Todd Frazier and Jacob deGrom on the disabled list, and trading Matt Harvey, Callaway made national headlines when his team hit out of order in the first inning, lost later that day and ended up going 2-3 on a five-game road trip after losing all six games of a homestand.
Callaway gathered his players and coaching staff after the game, explained to them what happened with the batting order and took full responsibility for what transpired.
