The New York Mets have hired two new coaches for the 2026 season. Kai Correa will be the team’s new bench coach while Jeff Albert will be the clubs’s Director of Major League Hitting.

We give our thoughts on these hires and what we’d like to see the team do in their future hires for the coaching staff.

In addition, the Mets signed their first player to a contact in 2026. Joe Jacques was signed to a minor league deal and we talk about that and what it means for the team.
