Terry Collins still gets stopped in the street and thanked by strangers for his job as manager of the 2015 Mets. He discusses how the intensity of New York made the job challenging yet rewarding. He reached out to Joe Torre for advice on how to navigate the city’s media and fans. He discusses the difficulty in watching Johan Santana have a shortened career after the no-hitter, and the ill-fated decision to keep Matt Harvey in the 9th inning of G5 of the World Series. Collins also walks through all the reasons this year’s Mets team never lived up to the hype.
