Who is the best manager in New York Mets history? It’s a debate I don’t think fans have enough. Is it because the answer is obvious or because we’re so torn on the topic?
The interesting thing about Mets managerial history is that one of the most well-known managers of all-time owns the worst winning percentage of any skipper. Case Stengel was the first manager in team history and he had to suffer through those grueling early days. By the time his job was over, he owned a .302 winning percentage as the Amazins’ leader.
Stengel is not one of our best managers in franchise history.
