According to Mike Pumaof the NY Post, the New York Mets are “leaning towards” an old school baseball guy as their next general manager.
This is coming from owner Fred Wilpon, as his son, Jeff Wilpon, wants a more analytically-minded GM.
Puma mentions Gary LaRocque (Cardinals), Tony LaCava (Blue Jays), Bobby Heck (Rays) and Dan Jennings (formerly with the Marlins) as potential candidates.
