Brett Baty starting in left field for the New York Mets isn’t something we envisioned when David Stearns said “run prevention.” Sure, maybe he can handle it. Hypothetically, if Baty was to win a left field job, it creates a little added chaos down the line. Baty plays a lot of left field to begin the year with Jorge Polanco and Mark Vientos sharing first base and DH duties. The Mets have already shored up center field with Luis Robert Jr., thus negating the possibility of Benge playing there regularly short of an injury or extended slump. The Mets have a looming roster crunch if Brett Baty is indeed a regular in left field to start the yearThe co-existence of Baty and Vientos has been a highly-discussed topic by Mets fans.
