Omar Minaya has begun his tour of the Mets minor league facilities, with his first stop in Buffalo, NY.
Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News relays some info that the meeting was generally about how pitiful the Bisons were this year and that it won’t continue, that the Mets want to put a winning team on the field, yadda yadda yadda.
Pandering to your Triple-A city won’t win you a World Series.
More importantly, we now know that Adam Wogan has taken over Tony Bernazard’s job (sorry, Adam Rubin). Wogan worked from 2002 to 2005 as farm director of the Montreal Expos / Washington Nationals, hence the tie to Omar Minaya.
Wogan joined the Mets in January of 2006 as Director of Minor League Operations. (Toby Hyde interviewed Wogan in 2007.)
Harrington also noted that “the entire hierarchy [of the organization] would be reevaluated after the season.”
