Carlos Mendoza’s tenure as manager of the Mets came to an end Friday as the team announced that he has been fired amid what has been a lost season for New York.
The Mets are 34-47 and in last place in the NL East by a wide margin. Mendoza has been on the hot seat during the dismal start to the year and now the team is heading in a different direction with Andy Green taking over as the interim manager for the rest of the season.
