He won't ever play against LHP. <br /><br />That's a lot of faith in Juan Lagares > Michael Conforto. <br /><br />Granderson hitting .162 vs. LHP and the team refuses to even look at Conforto? Cespedes struggles against LHP.<br /><br />What if Conforto actually does well against LHP? You know, what if he puts up numbers consistent with this past production? Wouldn't that be a good thing, possibly beneficial to the 2015 NY Mets?<br /><br />Why not find out? Take a look-see. Drive it around the block. Consider it?<br /><br />Anyway, I had my say.

Interesting decisions......<br />Lets not forget Mets starters may go toe to toe with a Kershaw. Which means its all about the bullpens.

The plan is to have Michael Conforto on the bench for those games -- without ever giving him a chance to show the Mets what he can do against left-handers.<br /><br />It stuns me that you guys are talking next year.James Prellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01342728812342563278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-68684617431058015302015-09-04T11:42:23.150-04:002015-09-04T11:42:23.150-04:00Ernest, I am for the platoon for now.
