Mets COO Jeff Wilpon joined the team in Atlanta on Monday for some organizational meetings.

New York manager Jerry Manuel wasn't fired, despite calls for his job.

Wilpon met for 90 minutes with general manager Omar Minaya, assistant GM John Ricco and Manuel in the manager's office of the visitors' clubhouse before Monday's series opener against the Braves.

"I didn't come here to fire anybody guys. I'm sorry. That's not what we're doing here," Wilpon said. "I came to talk baseball with them and hear what they want to do and how they want to get this moving in the right direction."
