Rick Peterson, Tom Nieto facing ax but Willie Randolph safe - for now Posted on 06-15-2008 Omar Minaya refused to guarantee… Pitching coach Rick Peterson and first base coach Tom Nieto also appear targets of the purge, but hitting coach Howard Johnson is expected to be spared. Triple-A New Orleans manager Ken Oberkfell and pitching coach Dan Warthen would be expected to join the staff. Willie Randolph’s job has never been in a more perilous state than right now, with this weekend series against the Rangers likely his final chance to remain as Mets manager.
