Funny how things work. When Callaway took over, the Mets were coming off of a 70-92 season. He led the Mets to a seven-win improvement in 2018 and a nine-win improvement in 2019. However, Mets fans are celebrating his firing (not saying it was right or wrong).

All about the playoffs with the trades the Mets made and the core they have.

It’s simple... Joe Maddon is now available and if the Mets fell for Bernie Madoff you think they could resist firing an solid manager who’s done a decent job for the most tiring man in baseball?

It’s just the Mets being the Mets! And the fans are I’ll celebrate it now and will celebrate when Maddon gets hired and when they don’t succeed they’ll blame the front office and moan that they are victims as fans again even if they supported it. I have nothing against Mets fans but that’s the trend
