New York is 34-47 following a six-game losing streak, 15 games behind NL East-leading Atlanta and 9 1\/2 games back of the NL\u2019s last wild-card berth.<\/p>\n

Mets owner Steve Cohen had high expectations for a team without a World Series title since 1986. New York opened the season with baseball\u2019s highest payroll at $358 million and was projected to pay an additional $124 million in luxury tax.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur commitment to bringing our fans a championship-caliber team has not changed,\u201d Cohen said in a statement. \u201cThere is no sugar-coating it: This season has been a disappointment and our fans deserve better than what we\u2019ve delivered.\u201d<\/p>\n

A former Yankees assistant coach, Mendoza replaced Buck Showalter after the 2023 season and led the Mets to a 206-199 record. While New York advanced to the NL Championship Series in 2024, the Mets failed to reach the playoffs last year and are among the sport\u2019s biggest disappointments this season.<\/p>\n

\u201cCarlos has led the organization with passion and grace and is beloved by everyone who works with him on a daily basis,\u201d president of baseball operations David Stearns said in a statement. \u201cCarlos\u2019 impact on our players, staff, and culture over the last three seasons has been transformative. Unfortunately, we know we are falling short and change is necessary to move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

Green, a former major league infielder, joined the Mets in 2023 as senior vice president of baseball development. He managed San Diego to a 274-366 record from 2016-19.<\/p>\n
