The good news is that the Mets scored eight runs yesterday and beat the Dodgers. The bad news is that the team still had a pretty poor week at the plate. Things were a little bit better, though, as two regulars hit well, whereas only one regular had done so in the previous week.
Player | Last Week | This Week | Comment |
---|---|---|---|
Eric Campbell, 3B | ![]() |
![]() |
Campbell didn’t do much in the handful of plate appearances he made. |
Darrell Ceciliani, OF | ![]() |
![]() |
The rookie outfielder had a tough week and hit .083 with no walks or extra-base hits. |
Michael Cuddyer, LF | ![]() |
![]() |
Cuddyer did not reachbase in ten plate appearances. Yikes. |
Travis d’Arnaud, C | ![]() |
![]() |
d’Arnaud hasn’t begun baseball activity yet, which is not exactly encouarging. |
Lucas Duda, 1B | ![]() |
![]() |
Duda’s numbers on the season are still very good, but he’s in a pretty prolonged slump right now. |
Wilmer Flores, 2B/SS | ![]() |
![]() |
Flores was the Mets’ best hitter for the week by a pretty wide margin, as he hit .478/.500/.609. |
Curtis Granderson, RF | ![]() |
![]() |
The team’s hottest hitter a week ago, Granderson was in quite a funk this week. |
Juan Lagares, CF | ![]() |
![]() |
Lagares continued to struggle at the plate, though he at least struggled a little bit less this time than he has in some other weeks. |
John Mayberry Jr., OF | ![]() |
![]() |
Mayberry had a 133 wRC+ for the week in nine plate appearances. That’s much better than what he had done in recent weeks. |
Johnny Monell, C | ![]() |
![]() |
Monell hit just .250 but had a .400 OBP and 103 wRC+, just enough to get the green arrow over the blue one. |
Daniel Murphy, 2B/3B | ![]() |
![]() |
There were no surprises in Murphy’s return from the disabled list, as evidenced by his .320/.370/.400 line for the week. |
Kevin Plawecki, C | ![]() |
![]() |
With a .267/.250/.333 line for the week, Plawecki is now hitting just .230/.273/.311 with the Mets so far this year. |
Ruben Tejada, SS | ![]() |
![]() |
Among the regulars, Tejada was one of the worst hitters, posting a 29 wRC+ for the week. Remember when he was hitting over .300? |
David Wright, 3B | ![]() |
![]() |
There were some mentions of the possibility of a return to baseball activity in the near future, but there is still no timetable for Wright’s return. |
