Mets Police Morning Laziness: who is Mike Bell and why would someone want him to manage the Mets?

Wait wait wait…is Wags actually this stupid?

This morning’s managerial rumor is Mike Bell.  Who?   To google him you actually have to google Mike Bell Baseball.

Michael John Bell is currently the Director of Player Development for the Arizona Diamondbacks, former coach for the Visalia Rawhide and the Yakima Bears, and former third baseman in Major League Baseball who played for the Cincinnati Reds in the 2000 season. (Wikipedia)

So we’re gonna replace the inexperienced 44 year old manager with an inexperienced 44 year old manager?

Wags, don’t get too cute with this pick.  Just hire Girardi and have an experienced manager who has won in New York City.  Stop the Flushing Circus for now.  Even if Joe is “bad” it will be fine…your real issue is some maniac keeps trading away all the prospects.

Old guys like me may find it interesting for two seconds that Mike Bell is part of the Gus Bell, Buddy Bell baseball family.  Whatever.

Other than managerial talk there continues to be no Mets content to discuss.

The Queens Baseball Convention announced the 2020 QBC will be held on January 18th, 2020 and an undisclosed location.

I really can’t take these AAIMBR blogs.  They’ve devolved into “Trade Targets” posts.  Why don’t you guys just fold your site and call 937-6666, wait an hour, and then say “Hey Mike….”   I mean what a complete waste of time guys.
