Viola was hired up by the Mets in January to serve as pitching coach for Triple-A Las Vegas after serving the same role for three years in Class A ball.
Viola reportedly hopes to return to coaching sometime this season.
Frank Viola wants to be pitching coach at Las Vegas at some point this season, Sandy Alderson says.
