The New York Mets, despite having the worst record in the Major Leagues at 10-21, will not make a coaching change.
New York Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns said the team’s problems are not Carlos Mendoza’s.
“We know our record is not what we want and we know we are capable of doing more,” Stearns told MLB.com. “We do not see this as a management issue and do not intend to make any changes.”

The Mets’ 10-21 start is the third-worst in franchise history, as only the 1981 (8-22-1) and 1964 (9-22) Mets teams had worse starts through 31 games. The Mets have endured a 12-game losing streak and have lost their last five of six games to the lowly Colorado Rockies and Washington Nationals.
No team has lost 12 consecutive games and made the postseason.
Mets officials still believe in the roster put together by Stearns, but believe the roster and baseball operations also share blame for the team’s porous start, according to MLB.com.

Mendoza, 46, is in his third season managing the Mets. In 2024, the team started 24-35, but rebounded and made a surprise run to the National League Championship Series before losing to the eventual World Series champions, the Los Angeles Dodgers.
In 2025, the Mets had the best record in the National League on June 4 at 39-23, but the team went into free fall after that and missed the postseason by one game, falling 44-56 down the stretch.
With the team’s struggles in the second half of last season and horrible start to this season, the noise surrounding Mendoza’s job security has only increased. But the Mets have no intention of making any changes yet.

Mendoza has a 182-173 record in his three seasons at the helm.
They will look to begin their journey out of the MLB cellar when they play the Los Angeles Angels (12-20) on Friday at 9:38 p.m. ET.
