Mets owner Steve Cohen has expressed his support for team president David Stearns, despite the team’s poor performance this season. The Mets have a 36-50 record and are struggling to overcome a 12-game losing streak in April.
Contract Commitment
Cohen stated that Stearns will remain in his position until the end of his contract in 2028. The Mets’ owner believes that it’s too early to make evaluations and that burning and churning through personnel is not a viable solution.
The Mets have the largest payroll in baseball, but their performance has been disappointing. The team let go of several key players, including Pete Alonso and Edwin Diaz, and brought in new players such as Jorge Polanco and Luis Robert. However, the new additions have not made a significant impact, and the team’s offense and pitching have struggled.
