The New York Mets have fired manager Carlos Mendoza amid a disappointing season, appointing former Padres manager Andy Green as the interim replacement. President of baseball operations David Stearns praised Mendoza’s leadership but acknowledged the team’s underperformance, with the Mets holding a 34-47 record and sitting last in the NL East. Mendoza, who had a successful first season in 2024, has seen the team struggle significantly in 2025 and 2026 despite a high payroll. The transition comes as the team seeks to improve its fortunes.
