“Mets Will Win Two..”- New York Yankees Legend Alex ‘A-Rod’ Rodriguez Makes a Bold Prediction About Rival Team
New York Mets are running riots in Major League Baseball. Although the league is still in its initial stage, the Mets have emerged as the surprise package in 2022. Given the strength of their squad and experienced coaching staff, Alex ‘A-Rod’ Rodriguez weighed his opinion on the Mets’ future.
Notably, ever since business tycoon Steve Cohen has taken ownership of the New York Mets, the Mets look like a completely different team than the last season. After the 2021 season, the first thing Cohen did, was to hire Buck Showalter as the Mets’ manager. And later in the free agency, the Mets made some notable signings.
Considering their recent signings and coaching staff, it seems like the Mets are in the safe hands of billionaire Steve Cohen. Recently, the New York Yankees legend Alex ‘A-Rod’ Rodriguez predicted that the Mets will be one of the most successful teams in the next decade.

The New York Mets have probably the most improved team from the last season, but that does not mean they will have their hands on the silverware so easily. The Mets are still a very inexperienced franchise in MLB. However, with the backing of a billionaire owner, Alex ‘A-Rod’ Rodriguez believes that they might end up winning a couple of World Series in the next ten years.

Talking to sportscaster Michael Kay, A-Rod opined that the Mets’ R&D department is more like a hedge fund. “I think the Mets, look, they are on a honeymoon,” A-Rod said. “They are spending a lot of money. Here is what I like about the Mets are doing. They are a hybrid of analytics and old school… The R&D department, that looks more like a hedge fund than a Major League front office. So that’s great, good job there.”
A-Rod also praised the coaching staff of the Mets and said Buck Showalter is the best manager in the game. “A better job is they have what I think, is the best manager in the game in Buck Showalter….,” A-Rod added. “And a guy like Buck Showalter, with a very veteran coaching staff. I think that mix is going to do very well. I am gonna say, the Mets will win two championships in the next ten years.”
With all hype built around the New York Mets, it will be interesting to see how far they will go.
