Beltran Fired

The Mets and Carlos Beltran agreed to ending the Beltran’s time as the Mets manager.

It comes less than three months after appointing him manager and just days after MLB confirmed his involvement in the Astros’ cheating saga as a player in 2017. The Mets had been debating Beltran’s future since Monday and were conflicted on what to do, according to The Post’s Joel Sherman. Beltran met with Mets top officials on Wednesday night and against Thursday morning to find a path to salvage his job, but were unable to find a suitable path.

Beltran, 42, had been on shaky ground since the league revealed Monday that he played a pivotal role in the Astros’ sign-stealing scandal, as a player during the 2017 championship season.

This makes Beltran the Pope John Paul I of baseball. We’ll be waiting for the white smoke to come out of the home run apple. With luck, the Mets will hire George Ringo to manage.
