The New York Mets need a manager and have an interested party in Chicago White Sox bench coach Joe McEwing. According to Mike Puma of the New York Post, McEwing has described managing the Mets as a “dream job.”
The Mets and their fans are, of course, very familiar with McEwing. After all, he interviewed for the manager’s job in 2017 before the team ultimately hired Mickey Callaway, who was fired at the end of last season.
But McEwing also spent five years with the Mets as a utility infielder from 2000-2004.
