Mets Finalizing Deal With Mickey Callaway
The Mets have offered their managerial job to Indians pitching coach Mickey
Callaway, according to Joel Sherman of the New York Post. The two sides are
finalizing Callaway’s contract, Sherman adds (Twitter link).
The 42-year-old Callaway emerged as the top candidate for the job earlier
Sunday, beating out Mets hitting coach Kevin Long, Mariners third base coach
Manny Acta and White Sox third base coach Joe McEwing for the position.
Callaway “stood out” from the rest during his interviews with Mets brass,
Sherman tweets. The club’s hope is that Long will stay on as part of Callaway
’s staff, per Sherman (on Twitter).
Callaway, who also drew interest from the manager-needy Phillies, developed
an excellent reputation during his five-year run as the Indians’ pitching
coach. In what will go down as Callaway’s final season on manager Terry
Francona’s staff, the Indians boasted one of the most successful pitching
staffs of all-time.
As was the case in Cleveland, Callaway will have an opportunity to work with
a slew of gifted pitchers in New York. Despite the immense talent on hand,
though, the majority of Mets hurlers dealt with injuries and posted poor
performances in 2017 during a 70-92 season that led to manager Terry Collins’
ouster. Aside from Jacob deGrom, none of the Mets’ top starters stayed
healthy. Noah Syndergaard missed most of the season, while Matt Harvey,
Steven Matz and Zack Wheeler mostly turned in ineffective showings when they
were healthy enough to take the mound. Meanwhile, fellow starters Robert
Gsellman, Seth Lugo and Rafael Montero failed to distinguish themselves as
rotation locks for 2018.
