New York Mets Mets appreciate what Andy Green has already done in ‘impossible’ situation By Mike Puma Published July 3, 2026, 9:22 p.m. ET Andy Green took over as Mets interim manager after Carlos Mendoza was fired. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post ATLANTA — Andy Green began Week 2 in his interim managerial role on Friday, savoring his return to the dugout but under no illusion that he possesses all the answers.
A week earlier, Green departed the Mets’ front office, where he served as vice president for player development, to assume the managerial reins upon Carlos Mendoza’s firing.
