Thank god

He won’t be back in the Yankee booth and I honestly hope for Mets fans he isn’t somewhere in theirs.
He'll do well with the Mets.  
Optimus-NY : 2/5/2023 5:53 pm : link
Probably as a special advisor to Epps. This was being whispered when the Mets had Old Timers Day. It'll also ease his transition to being part of Buck's staff eventually. I think he said he was considering adding him. Anywho, Beltran never ever belonged in a broadcast booth of any kind, but a buck is a buck.
Wish he'd coach 3B instead of Joey Cora.  
Optimus-NY : 2/5/2023 5:56 pm : link
Cora would send anyone home, including a dude in a wheelchair if he could.
nice move bringing him back  
Eric on Li : 2/5/2023 6:10 pm : link
i didnt like him as manager but i do like getting him back in the org.

Agreed. The guy knows his baseball and is sure to be a positive addition. He just can’t comfortably get his thoughts across in a booth.

Well put. The Mets have two bright guys now in a managerial pipeline in Chavez and Beltran for whenever Buck wants to say goodnight Gracie.

That's what I was thinking when I saw this.
Rojas  
DanMetroMan : 2/6/2023 12:23 pm : link
is the Yankees 3rd base coach, can't see any incentive for him to leave given his managerial aspirations.

not questioning you, legitimately asking
Boone  
DanMetroMan : 2/6/2023 3:13 pm : link
Is probably fired if the Yankees don’t at least make the WS but Rojas has a better role right now with the Yankees than whatever bone the Mets could throw him. Their full staff has already been announced. 3B coach for the Yankees is a relatively “high profile” job for a guy looking to get back into being a manager vs. some made up role the Mets could offer
Beltran  
DanMetroMan : 2/6/2023 3:26 pm : link
turned down a coaching role with the Mets previously so either he's moved on from wanting to manage/coach, or for now he'd prefer a role where he's not on the road much (if at all). The Mets have Cora at 3b, Wayne Kirby (Buck's right hand man) at 1b, newly promoted Eric Chavez as bench coach, Barnes/Hinske as hitting coaches and Danny Barnes as an "assistant coach". No room for another legitimate hire that would be comparable to being the Yankees 3b coach.
The only person Beltran was going to

+1
...so long as this doesn't mean that the equally-awful Cam Maybin doesn't get assigned to the games earmarked for Beltrán.
Carlos is announcing in his second language  
Vanzetti : 2/7/2023 8:58 am : link
How many people here can speak two languages and how would you do performing in your second?

I agree he is not a great listen but I think we have to cut him some slack.

What is the issue with Coonrod? I searched about him but couldn’t find anything other than injuries.

The answer will likely result in a debate that is banned on BBI. Political/religious in nature.

Dan is 100 percent correct - if you search for “Sam Coonrod controversy”, the first result is likely your answer.

And go probably may an upfront in a state of residence that isn’t CA. That said seems like he would get more than 5/100 on open market no? Heck I could see him opting for a short 3/90 or something like that.
Pretty  
DanMetroMan : 2/9/2023 2:05 pm : link
clearly he wanted to stay in SD otherwise there would be no incentive to help them by spreading it over 6 years.

FA market is going to be TRASH next off-season
Yea with darvish the pitching side  
bhill410 : 2/9/2023 2:09 pm : link
I thought was going to be okay, but that is now thinning considerably. On the offensive side there really isn’t anything of not after Machado/Otani.

You can kind of get why offensive players were at such a premium this year.
It's  
DanMetroMan : 2/9/2023 2:16 pm : link
basically Ohtani, Machado, Chapman, Nola, Scherzer (if he opts out), Javy Baez if he opts out, Conforto if he opts out, Happ, Kershaw (he's not leaving)... yikes
Probably  
DanMetroMan : 2/9/2023 2:38 pm : link
reading far too much into it but maybe a hire to replace outgoing Sandy is coming soon and thus Bryn deciding to leave. Still, the timing is odd.
