Maybe what the Mets need is a hometown hero. Someone who is from Queens and grew up a Mets fan.
Spider-Man has been attending games since the 1970s (seen here in his throwback New York Giants cap). He is constantly thinking about the game and how the dimensions of Citi Field (The Wall) allow him to position his outfielders aggressively.
The only downside would be if Gelbs is replaced by J. Jonah Jameson. Then things could get very ugly in the post-game. I don’t think Steve Cohen will want to take that risk.
Will Spider-Man manage the Mets? No.
