The Mets have a losing record in Spring again (womp womp) as they dropped a game to the Nationals at Space Coast by the score of 8-5.
On the pitching side, Harvey wasn’t terrible as he allowed 2 ER, 3 R over 4 innings of work. The breakdown came from Parnell, who had his first bad inning of the spring as he allowed 4 ER over an inning of work.
Nothing too much to note about the play of OF except for the following:
– Duda went 0-3 as it becomes increasingly obvious that no one has a sure shot in the OF
– Cowgill 1-4 with HR as he keeps asserting himself to the OF
– Byrd 2-4, RBI
Statistically from Spring, the top 3 OF the Mets have right now are Cowgill, Byrd and Valdespin. Way different than Baxter, Kirk and Duda.
