The Mets completed the interview stage of their managerial search process Thursday afternoon when general manager Sandy Alderson and other team executives met with finalists Wally Backman and Terry Collins. The other two finalists, Chip Hale and Bob Melvin, interviewed Wednesday. "I'm confident we will be able to make a decision within the next several days. ... I do feel confident that among these four we'll find the next manager of the New York Mets," Alderson said.
