NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — Luis Rojas probably will return for a second season as manager of the New York Mets.
Sandy Alderson, who returned as team president Friday when Steve Cohen bought the Mets from the Wilpon and Katz families, said he had spoken with Rojas several teams in recent days.
Alderson said it’s “very likely” Rojas will remain but added that he “left the door slightly ajar” pending his decision on a new president of baseball operations.
Alderson fired general manager Brodie Van Wagenen and his top aides Friday.
