Mets Stick with Mendoza, Despite Rough Patch

0:00It's May 3rd. This is New York Mets News today. AI powered updates on your team. I'm Cory with the story. Rumors are swirling that the New York Mets might join the Boston Red Sox and Philadelphia Phillies in firing their manager this season, with Carlos, Mendoza and the Hotsie. But MLB Insider, Ken Rosenthal, drops some clarity on Fox Sports, saying the Mets front office has no plans to let him go right now. David Sterns, the team's president of baseball operations, told Rosenthal they're sticking with Mendoza for the time being. That said, Rosenthal warned it could all change if the team's rough patch drags on. Fans and analysts are buzzing because the Mets have dealt with injuries, shaky roster moves and a batting lineup that's gone cold. Other teams already pulled the trigger on their skips, so pressure is mounting in Queens. The Mets get a breather with a soft stretch ahead, wrapping up against the Los Angeles Angels, then the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks. They grab the 4-3 win Friday night in Anaheim, with Game 2 Saturday at 938 PM Eastern.
