Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns reiterated on Monday that interim manager Andy Green is expected to return to the front office after the season, despite the team's recent improved performance. Stearns praised Green's familiarity with the players and their knowledge of him, which has contributed to the team's success.

Green, who previously headed the player-development department, was hired as interim manager on June 26 to replace Carlos Mendoza. The Mets have faced challenges with injuries to key players, including Juan Soto and Devin Williams, but Stearns remains optimistic that both could return this season. The team also made moves to strengthen their roster, signing utilityman Christopher Morel and designating infielder Gabrial Arias for assignment.
