Luis Rojas is out as New York Mets manager after two seasons.
Steve Cohen likely won’t waste any time finding his team’s replacement, and SportsBetting.ag has set odds for 18 candidates.
Joe Espada is the favorite, but the man the Mets nearly had before Rojas, Carlos Beltran, is second on the board with 5-1 odds.
There are a lot of former Mets in the “longshot” range.
