A day after The Athletic ran an article detailing inappropriate advances made by former New York Mets‘ manager (and current pitching coach of the Los Angeles Angels) Mickey Callaway, several people pointed the finger towards Queens given that his practices took place in three organizations, one of them being the Mets.
The article reveals that he also did it while working with the Cleveland Indians, and as recently as 2020 when he was already a member of the Angels. The Mets have now issued a statement on the matter.
“The conduct reported in The Athletic story today is completely unacceptable and would never be tolerated under my ownership,” were the words of New York Mets’ owner Steve Cohen.
