Mets, Assistant GM Bryn Alderson Part Ways

By Darragh McDonald | February 9, 2023 at 12:35pm CDT

Bryn Alderson is no longer an assistant general manager with the Mets and is leaving the organization, reports Andy Martino of SNY.

Alderson, the son of team president Sandy Alderson, has been with the organization since 2011. He was originally brought aboard in a scouting role but was promoted to assistant general manager in July of 2021. This came in the middle of an unstable period for the club’s front office. Jared Porter was hired as general manager in December of 2020 but sexual harassment allegations surfaced shortly thereafter and he was fired in January of 2021. Zack Scott was named the acting general manager at that time but he was charged with a DWI, of which he was later acquitted, in September 2021 and dismissed in the subsequent months. Billy Eppler was named general manager in November of 2021 and has been leading the baseball operations ever since.

Given all of that, it’s not entirely shocking to see the two sides split. Alderson was promoted during the brief period when Scott was in the top spot but before Eppler came aboard from outside. On the other hand, it’s at least somewhat curious to see him making his exit while his father is still the club’s president. The Mets have been searching for a new president in recent months, but with the elder Alderson set to stick around in an advisory role.

Carlos Beltran was recently hired as a special assistant and Martino’s report indicates that the Mets may hire others with field experience.

    The Mets should have traded Bryn and a bag of balls to Milwaukee for David and Whitney Stearns first born, aka an executive to be named later.

    How many times is Sandy Alderson going to “retire?” Just give him an emeritus position, already. Here’s an idea: The Fred Wilpon Endowed Chair of Senior Consulting.

      Basically a volunteer gig given the Wilpons’ cheapness!

    YES!!! One Alderson down, one to go. This is a victory for the organization. But not complete until the old man is shown the door.

    What happened to John Ricco ?

      @metvibes he’s “the senior vice president and senior strategy officer for the New York Mets…”

      Always thought Ricco was over his head, but having guys around who know the organization and can handle the immense paperwork generated, is invaluable.

    Good. The Mets need to clean house of the previous regimes and shovel nepotism out the door.

    Eppler is the clown that has to go. Useless stiff whos track record is absolutely horrendous. I thought cohen was smarter than this. Guy wasn’t even in top12 list for the job.

          I am a long time Mets fan who now lives out in Angle Honk land so I second the inEppler comment and it is not a Met hater comment. I saw what he did to the Angels and keeping Lowly Rodriquez all year when everyone knew he couldn’t pitch just to save his ego cost the Mets dearly

          @icantstandyous It was shocking malfeasance, and that’s before considering that to get the dross he did (between the players added to the Mets and the rookies brought up from desperation they picked up 0.0 WAR) Eppler dealt away seven useful or promising players.

          My position is that Cohen is increasingly cementing his reputation as a guy who pulls up short at the finish line. He did it again in adding Narvaez and Senga for the same guarantee in 2023 as Rodon will get from the Yankees, and wanting Correa but failing to add players who would boost the team as much and for similar money as Correa got from the Twins.

          The prospect hoarding, too, is absurd. They know none of Baty, Vientos, and Mauricio can handle 3B, and yet they’re turned none of the three into a full-time LFer, a hole that will open up in 2024 if not sooner, given Canha’s age.

          As for Eppler, it has become abundantly clear he’s Cohen’s front. Eppler is not the Mets GM; Cohen is. Eppler handles the paperwork, makes suggestions, but ultimately has no real power. Cohen is making the significant decisions.
