LA's Brodie Van Wagenen, Citi Field, New York's GM for Mets
Just months ago, the Mets introduced Brodie Van Wagenen as their new G.M. and a recovering agent. Sources say that Van Wagenes has made a very smooth transition into his new role. Van Wagenen has earned immense accolades for structuring the best and the most unique deals and contracts in 2016. His most notable being being Ryan Zimmerman. Ryan, Van Wagenen worked together for many years and had built up tremendous history. Similar to Van Wagenen's, a decision like this is very rare for an MLB team to make. However, it seemed an easy decision due to Van Wagenen's impeccable record and past success. These kinds of career jumps of an agent becoming a GM are quite rare sights in the industry.
