Carlos Mendoza was the Mets ’ preferred candidate over Craig Counsell .

He was replacing Buck Showalter , who’d managed 3,418 games, and had only 13 exhibition games on his résumé.

He talked like a man with a couple of thousand games already under his belt.

The Mets were 21-27 on May 21 when they were losing 105 ballgames.

Aaron Boone's old boss Aaron Boone has won 58.4 percent of every game he’s ever managed, higher than Casey Stengel , Joe Torre and Billy Martin .

Maybe Mendoza is a one -hit wonder, but it's hard to see the job he's done and not think he has staying power in him.
