Mets temporarily lose Sandy Alderson due to health issues

Even for the New York Mets fans who wanted Sandy Alderson to leave, this is nowhere near the best way for it to happen.

Earlier today, Sandy said he’s going to take a leave of absence from the team, in order to deal with health concerns.

A few years ago, Sandy faced a similar scare when he was diagnosed with cancer. He recovered and was able to keep doing his duties as the GM for the Mets. This time, it’s looking like Sandy has relapsed

For now, though, Sandy is will be having surgery sometime during the summer and everything looks good for the GM.
