The Mets won their 8th game that doesn’t matter in their last 11 games that don’t matter putting them in a tie for second place in a league were standings don’t matter. How did they do it? Let’s take a look:
- Lagares had a cold day at the plate going 0-4 with a run, but is still hitting .375 in spring
- Granderson continued to stay hot getting three hits in four AB’s, raising his BA to .452
- Wright also cooled off going 0-4 but that dropped his BA only to .300
- Cuddyer went 2-4 hitting another homer. That’s 5 this spring
- Muno also went 2-4 raising his BA to .400 as he continues to lock in a spot in the Mets depth chart
- Campbell went 1-3 with 2 walks and scored 3 runs
- Recker finally woke up and went 3-4
- Tejada went 1-4 adding in his 6th double of the spring
- deGrom allowed 2 ER over 4 innings striking out 5 batters
- Leather Rocket faced one batter and struck him out as he tries to hang around the LHP conversation
The Mets are getting closer to the season, can the offense stay hot two weeks from now?
