Mets To Hire Gary DiSarcina As Bench Coach

By Connor Byrne | November 5, 2017 at 8:05am CDT

The Mets are hiring Gary DiSarcina as their new bench coach, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports. Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe first suggested the Mets would tab DiSarcina to replace previous bench coach Dick Scott (Twitter links).

The 49-year-old DiSarcina spent 2017 as the bench coach for the Red Sox, but he lost the position when the team fired manager John Farrell after the season. Previously, DiSarcina held other roles with the Boston organization, including serving as its Triple-A manager in 2013. He also worked with the Angels on a couple of occasions, most recently as a third and first base coach on Mike Scioscia’s staff from 2014-16, after spending his entire playing career with the Halos as a shortstop from 1989-2000.

Thanks to his experience in multiple high-level positions, DiSarcina has drawn managerial interest in the past, even landing on the Phillies’ radar when they were searching for a manager last month. That job ultimately went to Gabe Kapler, paving the way for rookie Mets skipper Mickey Callaway to hire DiSarcina as his right-hand man.

    But good luck Gary.

      In 1986, I was at a party where Gary DiSarcina came up from behind me and touched my butt.

    I’m liking these coaching/managerial moves.
    fresh faces, new ideas.
    even the trainers are getting a face-lift.
    I’m a happy fan again

      Your happy fandom was riding on the relative age of bench coaches and trainers?

        Need two more solid moves:

        1-Force Wilpon’s to sell to an owner who will invest in the franchise.

        2-Replace Sandy with a GM that is more in touch with today’s game and tell him to build for the future.
