Mets Must Admit Mickey Callaway Has Been a Complete Failure After Another Loss to Lowly Marlins

One win against the lowly Miami Marlins shouldn't be too much to ask, but that might be all that's keeping Mickey Callaway from finding himself on the unemployment line.

It's only May, but the New York Mets have proved themselves an utter sham of an organization despite making some necessary improvements this offseason. Something has to change, and they've tried making adjustments to the roster and front office. There's only one solution remaining.

Despite the additions of Wilson Ramos, Edwin Diaz and Robinson Cano this offseason, the Mets still find themselves in the midst of mediocrity. Speaking of Cano, he is not to go unblamed in this, even though his antics on Friday went completely unpunished.

Callaway is a players' manager, and that works up to a point, but the second-year skipper has failed to hold his squad accountable when they need a strong voice.

The Marlins are merely a blip on the radar for New York, yet this series defeat epitomizes all that is wrong with how the Mets are managed. At a certain point, bad luck isn't a capable excuse.

It's time for Brodie Van Wagenen to exercise his rights and hire his own head man, with the ability to rejuvenate a group which ought to be pushing the Braves and Phillies near the top of the NL East.
