Manny sure was a tremendous hitter. It is intriguing, but the great ones are not always the best coaches.
Would rather have JD Martinez
Guy genuinely seems like he’s crazy, not sure how that would meld in the clubhouse
Manny’s on board part 2?
I mean.. if we’re all honest.. regardless of results, we all loyally & awesome fanedly (not a word).. watched so many innings of some of the most boring baseball imaginable.
I’m for it just for the make it at least not boring aspect
Naaaaa
No
As hilarious as this would be, Manny being Manny is not really a coaching philosophy.
Remembered the trade rumors for him for Lasting Milledge.
Let’s hire victor diaz instead
You know what, I’ve never heard the guy talk.
On the one hand, Manny Ramirez has one of the best swings of his generation so he’s probably legitimately got a lot to teach. He’s not just a random Steroid Era dude who cruised by on power.
On the flipside, he’s a known headcase and who knows whether he’s actually good at teaching what he knows. I think the Mets should definitely interview him, but as part of a wide process where they evaluate a lot of guys for the role.
I would’ve been with it if I didn’t see him on insta taking hitting tips from teacheman and some no name hitting coach. Imagine that hall of fame caliber hitter taking advise from Bozos.
No
As long as he’s not a fielding instructor…lol
Long as he puts viagara in the cooler again I’m good with it
How about we just get the best coaches possible and not be someone’s trial and error learning curve experiment. Cool? Thanks… we also have our own legends far more qualified if we want to go that route.
Can he still hit?
Finally, Manny will be a Met.
Would you rather have Keith in the booth or as a hitting coach?
Manny’s got a great instagram account where he gives batting tips and he’s still in excellent shape. I’m a huge manny fan. Make it happen.
we have to get away from thinking the best hitters make the best hitting coaches. If that were true, Eric Chavez would have been the best hitting coach in MLB this year by far
Only if we replace Mendoza with Backman. Let’s go all in on the crazy. /s
Genuine question, what are peoples gripes about Mendoza?
Just honestly trying to understand where all the Mendoza hate is coming from
SI is owned by the same group that owns Fansided so it’s mostly clickbait shit now.

I will take any other coach at this point.
Would love to see Manny in a Mets uniform
