Even in a fake game, it feels good to beat the Braves, hopefully the Mets will make a habit of it this Spring. Here’s what you need to know from this game:
- Dilson Herrera had another 0-3 day at the plate.
- Mayberry went 1-1 with a R and 2 walks
- d’Arnaud went 0-4 and left 6 players on base
- Flores 1-3, 2 R, 2B
- Conforto 3-4, 3 RBI, 2B. All of the offense in the game tracks back to former first round pick
- deGrom pitched the longest of all Mets pitchers so far this spring, logging 3 innings allowing 2 hits and one earned run.
- Bowman had two scoreless allowing 2 hits and a walk
- Gilmartin allowed one hit in a scoreless inning
Stocks on the Rise:
- Mayberry continues to see the ball well in spring
- Flores showed some offense
- Conforto had a fantastic day at the plate. He’s not in the picture for this season but he’s going to rise.
- On a day where Leather Rocket had a tough performance across the state, Gilmartin had a good performance trying to be the second LHP
Stocks Falling:
- Dilson Herrera is not really competing for a starting job, but it would be nice to see him get some hits
- d’Arnaud is not going to lose his starting job in spring, but it would be nice for him to get some hits.
