Story summary

The New York Mets are adding Derek Falvey to their front office, reuniting him with his former colleague David Stearns, who is now the Mets' president of baseball operations. This move comes after team owner Steve Cohen mentioned plans to add fresh perspectives in the organization. Falvey previously held the position of Twins president of baseball operations and helped build teams that made it to the postseason four times.

This addition is seen as part of Cohen's broader strategy to strengthen the team’s leadership.
