Mets Fire Mendoza After Rough Season

The Mets just fired manager Carlos Mendoza after a brutal season, despite having baseball’s second-highest payroll — a move Stephen A. Smith calls long overdue. With a dismal 34-47 record and last place in the NL East, the team’s leadership is signaling a hard reset. Smith contrasts Mendoza’s 72-102 record with Aaron Boone’s decade of playoff success, calling the Mets’ situation “sucks.” This shake-up aims to turn things around — and fans are watching closely to see if the rebuild can finally take flight.
