The Mets’ recent surge does not change David Stearns’ reported plans for manager Andy Green leading into 2027, according to accounts cited by multiple outlets. Green continues to be associated with the organization’s long-term plans even as the team’s performance improves under his leadership.
All sources note that Green previously served as the Mets’ vice president for player development before he takes over in the dugout. He replaces fired manager Carlos Mendoza in June, moving from an organizational player-development role to managing the major league team.
While outlets converge on Green’s background and timing of the managerial change, their reporting highlights the same core point: that a short-term team performance upswing does not appear to affect the front-office outlook for the future. The coverage frames the Mets’ improvement as relevant context, but not as a factor that alters the direction described by Stearns regarding Green’s longer-term standing.
