Former Milwaukee Brewers executive David Stearns was named the president of baseball operations in September and Billy Eppler is expected to remain as the team’s general manager.

Showalter took over the team before the start of the 2022 season and New York won 101 games. The Mets made the postseason but were eliminated in the National League Wild Card Series in three games.

There were even higher expectations going into the 2023 season as the team managed to sign Justin Verlander in the offseason. But a disappointing run led to the trades of Verlander and Max Scherzer.

New York is 74-86 and will end the season against the Phillies.
