Antoan Richardson Expected to Leave Mets Despite Stolen-Base Surge

First-base coach Richardson is expected to depart after contract talks stalled. He helped drive the Mets’ MLB-best 89% stolen-base rate (147-for-165) in 2025, fifth in steals, second-fewest caught stealing. Under his charge, Juan Soto swiped 38 to tie Oneil Cruz for the NL lead (prior high: 12). Richardson coached first for the Giants from 2020–23 before joining the Mets.
