Mets announce Zack Scott has been named acting GM

After the termination of Jared Porter as the Mets’ GM, team president Sandy Alderson said that he was confident with the group currently in-house to get the job done moving forward.

Well, that ringed true when the Mets announced Zack Scott would be promoted from assistant GM to acting GM.

“Zack has plenty of championship experience to draw upon,” Alderson said in the official statement. “He has been an integral part of our decision-making processes since his arrival. The entire baseball operations staff, including myself, will continue to work collaboratively.”
