Carlos Beltran has decided not to pursue the managerial position for the New York Mets in 2027. While fan interest in Beltran remains high, he expressed a preference for his current role as a special assistant in the Mets' front office, which provides him more time for personal commitments. The Mets are in search of a new manager following the firing of Carlos Mendoza in June, and interim manager Andy Green has indicated he prefers to return to the front office. Other names in consideration include Alex Cora and Albert Pujols. Beltran previously held the manager role briefly in 2019 before stepping down due to the Astros sign-stealing scandal.
