According to Adam Rubin of the Daily News, the Mets are close to naming Tim Teufel as manager of their Double-A team, with Wally Backman soon replacing Teufel as Single-A St. Lucie’s manager.

Rubin also believes Mookie Wilson and John Stearns could return to the minor-league system as well.

wow, 1986 Mets all around… i like the idea of bringing in coaches who embody the type of play i hope the team is looking to instill within its youngest players, i.e., smart, tough, team-first baseball
