The New York Mets they were considering the first base coach of the Los Angeles Dodgers, Clayton McCullough, as a bench coach after he impressed in his managerial interview with the Queens, but a hiring doesn’t seem likely to materialize.
Famous MLB Network journalist Jon Heyman tweeted that New York’s top brass do not believe McCullough would leave Los Angeles to take a coaching role elsewhere, especially in the so-called ‘Big Apple’:
Instead, it looks like he’s ready to return for a second season on the staff of Japanese manager Dave Roberts in LA. The Mets were looking for a possible “headline-grabbing signing” for a bench coach.

I am fond of the King of Sports, especially the Boston Red Sox in MLB and in general all of Mexican baseball. This profession has given me the opportunity to cover major events such as the Caribbean Series, the LMB All Star, LMP (uninterrupted since 2009), signings of important players. I had the chance to attend the 2013 World Classic in Arizona, USA, albeit as a fan. Apart from this beautiful sport, I love basketball, where I have also narrated games and even a friendly NBA 10 years ago, but I carry baseball in my veins. Graduated in Communication Sciences from the Autonomous University of Sinaloa (UAS) , from which I graduated in 2011. I was born in Mazatlán, Sinaloa and started in the world of sports journalism in 2004 in the newspaper El Sol de Mazatlán, where I was a baseball columnist and reporter at the same time. In January 2009 I came to El Debate as a journalist reporter and it was almost six years (in the first stage), until in November 2014 I emigrated to the radio providing my services in LÃnea Directa-Grupo RSN. My cycle there ended in July 2019 and within days, El Debate gave me another opportunity to work and opened the doors for me again. That is how I came to Al Bat, where I have been since 2019 as a web journalist.
