Random Article from the Ultimate Mets Scrapbook

'A good choice'
New York Daily News, May 30, 1990
When Davey Johnson was fired, the Mets considered Bud Harrelson and Mike Cubbage to succeed him. Harrelson got the job, and an endorsement from his rival. Cubbage would eventually get the job, but only for seven games as an interim manager in 1991 after Bud's firing.
