The 37-year-old president of baseball ops has established himself as a bright young mind in baseball, leaving many wondering what's next after his unexpected announcement on Thursday.
Stearns said he is looking forward to spending time with friends and family as well as “pursuing some other interests.”
The baseball talking heads can’t help but wonder what some “other interests” might be, with some speculating he could be gearing up for a homecoming trip back to the East Coast. Born and raised in Manhattan, Stearns was at Shea stadium on Sept. 21, 2001 when Mike Piazza hit a two-run homer to list the Mets over the Braves in the first major sporting event since 9/11, an experience he described as “healing” for the entire city.
“I think that’s one of the moments, key moments in my life that informed me that I want to stay in the game in any capacity that I could,” Stearns toldSpeculation that Stearns could join the Mets is driven by the recent announcement that current Mets president Sandy Alderson isWhoever takes over for Alderson is inheriting a 101-win team and backed by owner Steve Cohen, who has proven he’s willing to dole out large contracts since purchasing the team in 2020.
While it’s fun to imagine what Stearns would be capable of with an arsenal of resources like the Mets would be able to offer, as of now he’s staying in Wisconsin.
