Ohhh no. Firstly, he would never come back. Secondly, this team sucks with anyone at the helm.

Mets should look at Kirk Gibson, hes a badarse and would demand respect. I also like Keith Hernandez

Sorry but everytime they ask mex(Hernandez) if he is interested he says he would never manage in todays game, and he is content in the booth. He can't even broadcast 10 games in a row with out a break. I love the guy but he is a prima donna.

Manuel was there for the problem so how can he be the solution?

well he was never the leader.  so maybe he'll do things differently.

i'm in the boat where the players are the problem, and they need to make moves.  i think almost any coach can coach this team and lose.

great point...   but as a manager who has had success in the past he could have a totally different view of the team and how it should be fixed ...

Usually there isn't too much difference in philosophy from your manager to your bench coach
