Carlos Beltran sparked confusion on the Yankees broadcast about Aaron Judge’s contract

The broadcast career is off to a great start!

Carlos Beltran spent three seasons with the New York Yankees, and despite his role in the Astros cheating scandal, Beltran is joining YES Network as an analyst for the 2022 season.

It didn’t take long for Beltran to cause a stir on the broadcast. It was his first day on the job!

Ever since the MLB lockout came to an end, the Yankees and Aaron Judge have looked to work out a contract extension. The Yankees reportedly offered Judge an extension over the weekend, but The Athletic reported that the two sides have a ways to go before reaching an agreement.

But during Monday’s spring training game between the Yankees and Phillies, Beltran sure made it sound like a deal was done in his YES debut.

WATCH: Mets hire Luis Rojas as manager, replacing Carlos Beltrán

The New York Mets have their new manager less than a week after parting ways with Carlos Beltran following his inclusion in the Astros sign-stealing investigation.

The New York Mets have their new manager less than a week after parting ways with Carlos Beltran following his inclusion in the Astros sign-stealing investigation. The Mets announced Wednesday that they have hired Luis Rojas as field manager, promoting from within to fill the role.

Rojas spent last season as the team’s quality control coach and outfield instructor (in his first season on a major league staff).

The 38-year-old has spent 13 seasons in the Mets organization and interviewed for the managerial position before the organization hired Beltran to the role in November 2019.

“Luis earned this job. He has literally trained his whole life to be a manager,” Mets GM Brodie Van Wagenen said. “He comes from a legacy family. … he is respected by the players. He is trusted by the players. And he’s someone that we have great confidence in. (…) we think that he has the ability to be consistent, to be calm under pressure and to understand the opportunity that this team has as we head into 2020.”

Rojas is the son of former Giants and Expos manager Felipe Alou.

Carlos Beltrán’s Mets tenure was short, but not Bill Belichick-Jets short

Former Mets manager Carlos Beltrán coached longer for a NY team than Bill Belichick.

If you happen to root for the Mets and the Jets, this one is going to be a tough read.

The two New York teams, often known for their dysfunction and second-fiddle status, can now both say that they have had top coaches depart far earlier than anticipated. Everyone knows the story of Bill Belichick and the Jets, but on Thursday, the Mets said goodbye to their own head man.

The Mets officially parted ways with first-time manager Carlos Beltrán after just 76 days as the team’s skipper. Beltrán was involved in the Houston Astros’ sign-stealing scandal while still a player in 2017; his name was mentioned in Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred’s report on Monday. As a result, the Mets and Beltrán split before the latter could even manage a game.

The sequence of events reeked of typical Mets incompetence — though the team was in a difficult position after the Astros and Red Sox, another team under investigation — sent their managers packing. Still, it’s not worse than what happened to the Jets in 2000 with Bill Belichick.

After Bill Parcells retired from coaching, the Jets and Belichick arranged for him to be the next head coach of the franchise. However, an issue with who was going to be the next owner after Leon Hess died didn’t sit well with Belichick. So, on the day Belichick was to be introduced as the head coach, he officially resigned after just one day on the job.

Beltrán managed as many games for the Mets as Belichick coached for the Jets. Beltrán, however, was on the job far longer, relatively speaking.

There’s a black cloud hovering over these two New York franchises. Even when neither team does anything wrong, they still find themselves in a predicament. Not to mention the amount of losing that has gone on between the two as well.

The Jets haven’t won a Super Bowl since 1968, while the Mets haven’t won a World Series since 1986.

For both of these franchises, things always manage to get worse just when their fans start to believe there are brighter days ahead. Think of the “Same Old Jets” mantra — but replace the “J” with an “M” for the baseball team in Queens.

WATCH: Carlos Beltran steps down as Mets manager after being named in Astros sign-stealing report

Carlos Beltran is done as Mets manager before his first season in the role began.

Carlos Beltran is done as Mets manager before his first season in the role began. The former Astro told the team Wednesday night that it was best to step down from the position, according to reports.

Mets management confirmed the news Thursday, releasing a statement that says, “We met with Carlos last night and again this morning and agreed to mutually part ways. This was not an easy decision. Considering the circumstances, it became clear to all parties that it was not in anyone’s best interest for Carlos to move forward as manager of the New York Mets.”

Beltran is the only player named in MLB’s investigation of the Houston Astros. He was a member of the 2017 World Championship team in his last season as a player. He is the third manager to lose his job since MLB released the results of its investigation into the Astros sign-stealing scandal during the world series season.

The Astros fired A.J. Hinch Monday after MLB suspended him one season, then the Red Sox announced they parted ways with Alex Cora after he admitted to playing a central role in sign-stealing in Houston.

The Mets hired Beltran Nov. 1, signing him to a three-year deal with a fourth-year option, the job was going to be his first as a manager. The 42-year-old played for the Mets from 2005 until 2011.

MLB fans had plenty of jokes about Carlos Beltran’s undefeated record as Mets manager

NEVA LOST.

The Astros cheating scandal has now claimed a third manager.

Just days after A.J. Hinch and Alex Cora lost their managerial jobs stemming from the scandal, newly named Mets manager Carlos Beltran decided to step down from his position. Beltran was hired by New York in November, but MLB’s report into the Astros’ trash-can-clobbering, sign-stealing operation revealed that Beltran played a part in it as a Houston player.

In a Red Sox press conference from last season, for example, Cora called the Yankees’ signing of Beltran as an advisor the team’s biggest offseason acquisition, crediting Beltran’s ability to pick up details.

Though MLB hadn’t levied discipline on Beltran, the Mets and Beltran evidently decided that the scandal would inhibit his ability to manage the team.

Still, the move came as a surprise to MLB fans, and, of course, there were plenty of jokes about Beltran’s undefeated record.
