1:35pm: In this series of tweets, Andy Martino of the New York Daily News
tweets that there's no clear favorite between Collins and Melvin, but that
Tim Teufel could fit as a first base coach. If Collins is hired as the
manager, Melvin could still fit as a bench coach, according to Martino. Chip
Hale will likely be retained regardless of the managerial decision, and the
Mets may go outside the organization for their hitting coach.
In a second tweet, Rubin seems to agree as he offers up his prediction for
the Mets' coaching staff: Collins managing, Melvin as the bench coach, Teufel
at first base, Hale at third base, and Dan Warthen as the pitching coach.
12:51pm: When the Pirates hired Clint Hurdle, it left the Mets as baseball's
only team without a manager and reduced their list of candidates by one.
While the team has yet to finish conducting interviews, Terry Collins has
emerged as the favorite to land the job, according to Adam Rubin of
ESPNNewYork.
Collins and Hurdle, along with Bob Melvin, were rumored to be the leading
candidates for the Mets' job, with a handful of other names also in the mix.
Rubin tweeted yesterday that he keeps hearing Collins mentioned as the team's
most likely choice, and today confirmed Collins' front-runner status with a
club source. The former Astros and Angels skipper has many supporters in the
Mets organization, including Jeff Wilpon and Paul DePodesta.
