According to Impacto Deportivo, Licey Tigers manager Dave Jauss was in New York on Monday to meet with the Mets about a job in the organization.
…thanks to Rafael T for the link…
The report does not indicate the type of position, or who he met with.
In the late 80s, while he was Field Coordinator of the Expos, Jerry Manuel hired Jauss to manage in Montreal’s minor-league system, where he was eventually named the Eastern League Manager of the Year in 1994.
Jauss has also spent time working for the Dodgers, Red Sox and Orioles, ranging in positions from first-base coach to bench coach to minor-league field coordinator.
In early October, Manuel told WFAN the Mets will first look internally for a third-base coach, and will consider Razor Shines and Sandy Alomar Jr. among candidates for the bench coach position.

ummm. I just read the report and it says that he was interviewed for the manager’s position. that must be a mistake, or are they firing manuel??
maybe a minor league manager, or to fill one of th erolls managing the latin part of th eoperation?
So Matt… is the ssumption then, that he is interviewing for the 3rd base job? What happened to Manny coming back?
Are the Mets ever going to realize that coaching isn’t this organizations problem… Its the guy who runs the organization! Omar Minaya!
