Story summary

The New York Mets have appointed interim manager Andy Green as their full-time skipper for the next three years, reversing previous statements that he would return to a front-office role after this season. Green took over in June when Carlos Mendoza was fired and has since led the team to a 37-38 record. The decision was met with approval from Mets owners Steve and Alex Cohen, who highlighted Green's ability to connect with players and bring positivity to the clubhouse. This move bypasses a potential search for external candidates like Alex Cora or Bob Melvin, opting instead for the continuity and leadership Green has provided since becoming interim manager in late June.
