Suddenly Stearns has to at least contemplate if Ng would be a fit and an upgrade for the Mets.
Astros are MLB's best team since dynasty Yankees — cheating be damnedthe abrupt resignation of Billy EpplerStearns has not been prioritizing finding a replacement for Eppler, who resigned upon revelation that he was being investigated by MLB. In part because Stearns’ intention was to have Eppler as his GM. And, in part, because he knew upon taking the job that he had a lot of issues already to address, headlined by finding a manager.
She saw that as untenable. Plus, all that was currently on paper contractually was that option year and Ng certainly had the right to ask for an extension after helping guide the Marlins to their first postseason appearance in a 162-game season since they beat the Yankees in the 2003 World Series.There also are high-profile executive openings that Ng could be in line for that are more attractive than the tight-budgeted Marlins.
But if a relationship with Cora matters, then during Ng’s first four seasons as the Dodgers assistant GM from 2001-04, Cora was a regular-playing middle infielder. So the two have history. Having run a baseball operations department, Ng might not want to have a title , but not the lead authority, which is vested in Stearns. But Steve Cohen has made it clear he would like to fill his front office with as much brain power as possible and he has demonstrated he will pay what is necessary to get what he craves — we can assume being No. 2 for these Mets would pay more than being the lead person for the Marlins.
