The Mets’ hasty postseason departure won’t result in changes at two key positions in the team’s hierarchy.
Both general manager Billy Eppler and manager Buck Showalter’s jobs are safe heading into next season, a high-ranking Mets official told The Post on Monday. The Mets concluded their season Sunday with a loss in Game 3 of the wild-card series to the Padres.
The Mets have a long-term goal of hiring a president of baseball operations above the GM, but that initiative won’t necessarily be implemented this offseason. Brewers president of baseball operations David Stearns has been a previous target. Stearns has another year remaining on his contract, and the Mets could conceivably wait for him to become a free agent.
Eppler was hired last November following an exhaustive GM search. Eppler’s offseason moves included acting swiftly to sign Max Scherzer, Starling Marte, Mark Canha and Eduardo Escobar to multi-year contracts. Eppler also recommended the hiring of Showalter as the team’s manager.
