Mets owner Steve Cohen backs GM David Stearns amid poor season

New York Mets owner Steve Cohen expressed confidence in general manager David Stearns, despite the team sitting in last place and missing the playoffs for a second consecutive season. Cohen praised Stearns' management during the trade deadline and noted positive assessments from peers like Jed Hoyer of the Chicago Cubs. While the Mets have recently found some success, winning 10 out of 13 games, the team’s overall performance has been disappointing, raising concerns about Stearns' future.
