The New York Mets are needy for offensive production; Owner Steve Cohen voiced his displeasure recently. Here is why Javier Baez could be the savior of this team.
We all know power hitters strike out a lot, but what’s to say Baez won’t hit 30-40 home runs and make stellar defensive plays? Baez had a huge night back, returning from the IL with a blast of his own.
So the pros? Home Runs by the dozens. A plus Defensive plays, whenever you want or need them. Excellent speed on the base paths and great base running.
The only downside to all these wonderful things, not a typo, is that Baez will literally chase pitches out of the strike zone, swinging at nearly anything and everything.
If you ask me, a strikeout is indeed a rally killer. But if you ask me again, it doesn’t mean he’s going to have back to back strikeouts. He could strike out the first at bat and homer in the next. That’s Javy.
You get what you get, and you have to embrace him if you are a Mets fan, because this guy gets the whole team alive and up and winning in his epic return. What a difference one man makes.
Pay. The. Man.
It’s not rocket science.

Hello to all.
Now that Baez is back, soon Lindor will be back on the lineup and hopefully deGrom & Thor! I would like to see the New York Mets in the playoffs this year.
