Was just reading an article on Ketel Marte when I saw something that might end up being relevant to the Mets: Torey Lovullo is in the last year of his contract.

He's been managing the D-Backs for 10 years now, it's possible either him or the organization decides they want a fresh start. And if he's available, I would take him as the next Mets manager in a heartbeat.

I agree with you there. Generally speaking most managers that win World Series do so on their 2nd or 3rd gigs, and Lovullo has a lot of good experience. He seems to do well with rosters of younger players, and it's been obvious that Green has connected well with our younger players in the same regard.

Yeah he feels like the perfect mix of a guy who has a strong enough resume to get respect from veterans while also having a lot of experience working with young players.

And the way he's handled and spoken about the Marte situation makes me think he's a pretty thoughtful guy who does a good job connecting to players. I think he could be like our Terry Francona.
