Tom Nieto, the Mets catching instructor will take Rickey Henderson's spot on the Mets coaching staff according to Mets.com.

I don't know if this means Nieto will be the first base coach (the position Rickey held last year) or a different role.

Howard Johnson is the batting coach. Rick "The Jacket" Peterson is the pitching coach. Sandy Alomar Sr. is the 3rd base coach.

I never understood the why they hired Rickey Henderson in the first place.
