The final stage of the Mets’ managerial search will involve the returning candidates meeting with Fred Wilpon, who will ultimately have the final vote in who gets the job.
This is, presumably, the final round of the interview process.
The remaining managerial hopefuls would all be first-year candidates.
Carlos Beltran, Eduardo Perez, Tim Bogar, Derek Shelton, and no-longer-mystery candidate Pat Murphy are reportedly still in the mix for the position.
By making a big splash and signing Gerrit Cole or Anthony Rendon, the Mets can stop the laughter.
