Good morning.
OF Desmond Lindsay - Lindsay
is tough to gage because he simply hasn’t showed much on a consistent basis
yet. He injured a hamstring in 2016, which was what was expected to be his
full-season debut and then tore up the New York-Penn League once he returned.
Last season, he got off to an atrocious start, but seemed to right the engine
as the calendar turned to July. That’s where his season would end, cut short
once again.
I unfortunately only saw Lindsay twice early in the season.
He slashed .190/.320/.356 in the first half, so to say it was bad is an
understatement. But watching Lindsay in batting practice, there just seems
plenty to like.
Ht/Wt: 6’0”/200
B/T: R/R Age (as of 2018
MLB Draft): 18y, 6m
An advanced prep receiver with a plus arm, Banfield has
plenty of experience handling premium velocity as the travel ball battery-mate
of blue chip pitching prospects Ethan Hankins and Kumar Rocker for
Georgia-based Team Elite. Though his defense is ahead of his bat, Banfield flashes
above-average raw power potential and showed improved bat-to-ball skills this
Fall.
Seth Beer
on 2018 plans: Becoming a complete player, not just a great hitter –
What Beer has made his mission — his rallying cry of 2018 of
sorts — is to become a more complete player, though, in addition to just being
one of college baseball’s best hitters. In 2017, Beer hit .298 with 16 homers
and 53 RBIs, but the knock on him was his limited speed as a corner outfielder/first
baseman. For as good as Beer is behind the plate, he, too, wants to make sure
his glove skills are on the same level, and for that, he has worked tirelessly.
Redevelopment project next to NY
Mets'
stadium
is revived -
The New York Times reports that the administration of Mayor Bill de Blasio has struck a deal with developers for
1,100 apartments, a school, open space and retail in the Willets Point
neighborhood next to Citi Field.
The Willets Point project was first proposed by former mayor Michael Bloomberg. It appeared dead in 2015 when a
court ruled that the city could not take a piece of Flushing Meadows Corona
Park for a large shopping mall.

There goes dollar beers and two dollar empanadas with jukebox before exorbitant mets games.
Mack do you believe Beers could be absolute stud and a serviceable 1B?
because if he can then we should draft him and trade Smith (who i don't believe in)... and Alonso who i have hi hopes for and have beers be our cecil fielder... maybe a 40-50 HR guy in the future
I am high on Lindsay for 2018 - now that he had his ulnar nerve repositioned, hopefully his days of freaky injuries are over and he will get 125+ healthy games in this season. And move fast. Now that Rosario is in Queens, he might be the best athlete in their minors system.
I'll bet Beers will hit some Shots.

I think he poentially could be the next HUGE hitter in this game.
I know for a fact that he is working hard on his field work.
NOOOOOOOOO BEERS!
Enough of these lumberjack stiffs this organization is filled with. This organization needs athleticism and speed. This team needs defenders. This guy is a DH that should be taken in the second round. Madrigal is still the best fit for what this team lacks and other than him being diminutive, I still haven’t heard a good reason why the Mets should take him if he’s still available. Think the Astros are bitching about Altuve’s height?
Texas's, I agree on Beers. Sluggers are nice, too many lumbering YOUNG ones? Need a better mix.
