The New York Mets are in need of a new manager … and former MLB star Jose Reyes has a name in mind — Carlos Beltran!!
TMZ Sports caught up with the four-time All-Star this week … and got his thoughts on his old squad days after they parted ways with skipper Carlos Mendoza due to a 34-47 start.
Reyes doesn’t think Mendoza deserves all the blame for the lack of success — he thinks he’s a great guy and a good manager — but agreed that a change had to happen due to the team’s massive payroll.
The 43-year-old says a quick turnaround is crucial under interim manager Andy Green … and as the team looks for a permanent replacement, he told us Hall of Famer Albert Pujols really wants the gig.
That being said, Reyes said he prefers former Met Beltran, who played for the org. from 2005-11 … unless Green somehow works his magic and salvages the season.
The Mets wouldn’t even have to pick up the phone — Beltran is currently part of the front office as a Special Assistant to the President of Baseball Operations, David Stearns.
On top of that, Beltran will have his No. 15 retired this season to accompany his Hall of Fame induction.
We also spoke with Reyes about Knicks hero OG Anunoby‘s recent ceremonial first pitch … and he told us the interesting reason why the NBA Finals champ is a big fan of his!!
As for the pitch, it was no tip-in to win Game 4 against the San Antonio Spurs … but hey, not every highlight can be cemented in sports history.
Apple announced iOS 27 on Monday at the company’s annual Worldwide Developers Conference. The tech giant said the upcoming iPhone software will include an AI-integrated Siri, called Siri AI, and more ways to refine Liquid Glass on your device. And iPhones dating back to the iPhone 11 lineup will be able to run the upcoming software.
Apple’s WWDC announcement said it will release iOS 27 to the general public in the fall. Historically, Apple has released upcoming major iOS updates shortly after company’s September hardware event, so the company will likely release the software around then. Developers can download a beta version of iOS 27 now, and Apple will release a public beta version of iOS 27 in July.
Here are some of the new features iOS 27 will bring to your iPhone.
An AI-integrated Siri is everywhere
After months of rumors, Apple confirmed at WWDC that iOS 27 will integrate AI into your iPhone’s digital assistant Siri. This update is the biggest change in iOS 27, and it will touch seemingly everything on your device.
Apple has finally unveiled its revamped voice assistant.

Almost the entirety of Apple’s presentation focused on how Siri AI will be able to help you across your device in different ways. You’ll be able to swipe down on your iPhone’s Dynamic Island to search or start a conversation with Siri AI. The assistant will be able to take actions in apps like Messages, Music and Reminders, too.
Apple wrote online that Siri AI will be available on Apple Intelligence-enabled iPhones, like the iPhone 16 Pro, later this year.
New Siri AI app
The Siri AI app is a memory bank for all of your past requests and conversations.

Siri was such a big star at WWDC, Apple announced the personal assistant will also have its own separate app that you will be able to access in iOS 27.
“A dedicated app brings together all your conversations in one place, so you can ask a question on your iPhone and pick up where you left off on your iPad,” Apple wrote online. “You can also pin conversations for easy access or start a new one.”
This turns Siri AI into an AI chatbot similar to ChatGPT and Claude.
Siri comes to your Camera
Apple said its digital assistant will also be in your Camera app with the new Siri Mode in iOS 27. Once you activate this new mode, you’ll be able to point your camera at something around you and get information about it on your iPhone.
Updated Image Playground app
With iOS 27, your iPhone’s Image Playground app gets an update which will allow you to create photorealistic images.
Apple introduced its AI-image generator in 2024 when it released iOS 18.2.
Liquid Glass changes
Apple unveiled its new Liquid Glass slide that lets you toggle between Ultra Clear and Tinted Glass.

Apple showed off a Liquid Glass slider at WWDC on Monday that lets you change the Liquid Glass elements across your device. You’ll be able to make those elements semi-translucent, opaque or something in between.
Apple introduced the Liquid Glass design in 2025 alongside iOS 26. It’s the first major visual change on iPhones since iOS 7 in 2013.
Health app supports tracking menopause and perimenopause

Apple said that your iPhone’s Health app’s cycle tracking feature will support both menopause and perimenopause. You’ll be able to log symptoms related to both within the app, and the app will have educational content available to help you learn more about your body.
Those are a few of the new features iOS 27 is expected to bring to iPhones this fall. Developers can try these features now, and Apple said public beta testers will get access to the software in July.
