In an effort to find a new bench coach, Terry Collins interviewed Mets Double-A manager Pedro Lopez at Citi Field on Dec. 14, Lopez told El Nuevo Dia (Dec. 15, 2015).
The Mets are working to replace Bob Geren, who had been the team's bench coach before leaving in November to join the Dodgers.
"The interview went very well," Lopez said. "I was a little anxious at first, but the atmosphere was very casual."
According to Lopez, he was told the team intends to make a final decision within the next few days.
