Sun Feb 5 202321:39Carlos Beltran Joining Mets Front Office
Carlos Beltran, who spent 20 years in the major leagues and at one point served as the New York Mets manager, will be leaving the YES network. Beltran received a job offer from the Mets as special assistant to general manager Billy Eppler. The 45-year-old spent some time with YES and broadcasted live games in 2022. Just three years back, Beltran was slated to become the Mets manager but was fired after he was linked to the Astros' sign-stealing scandal. According to the New York Post, manager Buck Showalter was considering Beltran to become the Mets assistant hitting coach, but he ultimately landed a job under Eppler. Additionally, Beltran placed sixth in Hall of Fame voting in his first year on the ballot with a 46.5% mark.

Sat Jul 11 202013:00Chemistry class: New managers test for right mix amid virus
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Derek Shelton needs his freedom. Maybe now more than ever. Fortunately for the first-year Pittsburgh Pirates manager, bench coach Donnie Kelly made it a point to provide it.Each day Kelly puts together a meticulous schedule designed to find a way for separate groups of players to get their work in during the most unusual training camp in major league history. Shelton's name isn't on it. While Shelton jokes it's because Kelly doesn't want him to “screw anything up,” the truth is Shelton's omission is Kelly's way of doing his boss a favor.Rather than be tied to being in a certain place at a certain time, Shelton instead can float from spot to spot as he tries to play catch up on the kind of relationship building that was supposed to happen organically during the languid days of spring training.When Major League Baseball shut down for three-plus months in mid-March due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it forced Shelton and his fellow rookie managers to get creative when it came...
