The Brodie Van Wagenen era in Queens has officially come to an end.
The removal of Van Wagenen was seen as a likelihood by many and is now official. Brodie is no longer the General Manager.
Jeff Wilpon will no longer serve as the team’s COO. Sandy Alderson is back in town, as we know, taking over as team president.
Steve Cohen did not waste any time!
Van Wagenen’s front office has also been gutted. Omar Minaya, Allard Baird, Adam Guttridge and Jared Banner were all relieved of their respective duties.
We can wait and see how his draft picks pan out, but it’s safe to say that Van Wagenen’s time as GM of the Mets was an unmitigated disaster.
