Mets radio team loses one of its voices

Mets radio will have a new sound beginning next year.

Josh Lewin is leaving the booth as the team moves its game broadcasts to WCBS-880 from WOR-710 AM beginning in the 2019 season. Meanwhile, Howie Rose, the lead play-by-play, has agreed to terms for a new deal and will return as the voice of the team.

Lewin is taking a unspecified new play-by-play position that he said would be better for his family.

“Earlier this week, I removed myself from consideration as part of the Mets’ radio team,” Lewin told The Post. “Instead I will be accepting an offer away from New York, with details coming as soon as the contracts get signed.
