Carlos Beltran is out as New York Mets manager due to his involvement in the Houston Astros’ sign-stealing scandal, sources tell ESPN. He is the third manager to lose his job in the fallout.

True but I would think the hitter would have to be so caught up in listening to the banging it would mess with his natural instincts as a hitter.
Takes maybe a few ABs to get used to it... Then it's like playing with a cheat code. If you can sit on offspeed or heat... I think especially for the bad hitters that are just guessing up there anyway... like imagine Zunino with this system!!!!!

Speaking of the King, I am starting to wonder if he will even get a minor league deal.

I think Beltran’s move is prudent for himself (assuming it was a mutual decision to step down) as it leaves unsullied his potential as a HoF candidate.

So now, three teams looking for managers as a result of this.

I’m assuming only in an alternate universe would anyone ask the Ms front office for permission to talk to Servais...

Remember when we traded Lou for Randy Wynn? I wonder what we could get for SS?
