GorillaNJ Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 October 4, 2010 Dear Mets Fans: Thank you for your support during another extremely disappointing season. Like you, all of us at the Mets had high expectations for 2010 and we did not come close to meeting them. Since reaching the National League Championship Series in 2006, we have underperformed. The failure is unacceptable and we share your anguish. As Ownership, we are ultimately responsible and have determined that changes are necessary to produce a winning team for the long term. Earlier this morning, we relieved Omar Minaya of his duties as Executive Vice President of Baseball Operations & General Manager, and advised Jerry Manuel that we are declining to exercise the club's option on his contract as Manager for 2011. We appreciate all that Omar and Jerry have done for the Organization and thank them for their time and effort. Changes like these are never easy, especially when dealing with people you like and respect. We feel a fresh perspective in the leadership of our baseball department will elevate the performance of our club. That person will work with Ownership to hire a new Manager and will be responsible for creating a winning culture. We have a lot of work to do to regain your confidence and support. Thank you for the opportunity to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fringe Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Omar is staying within the organization. Not sure how I feel about this. that just means they owe him money and they don't want him working for anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditto Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 that just means they owe him money and they don't want him working for anyone else. The Mets would be better off if he did work for someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
