Mets: Brodie Van Wagenen needs hire a manager he can work with, not above

Winter has come for the New York Mets and the first major storyline is their search for a new manager. Mickey Callaway survived a few days past game 162 before he was relieved of his duties after two years.

The search is on for the new driver and Brodie Van Wagenen will have an opportunity to “pick his guy.”

There is some thought Van Wagenen will select a manager he can, for lack of a better word, control. We’ve seen a growing trend around Major League Baseball where general managers are the ones with the majority of the power.
