He has been one of the worst relievers in the system this year. <br /><br />With Verrett vs. Gee, there should be no rose colored glasses on Verrett. In his career, mostly in the minors, he has allowed 59 homers in 508 innings, the equivalent of about 59 games. So that is a homer every 9 innings against minor leaguers. Minor league teams hit homers at lower rates than the bigs, and the big leaguers are far better hitters. So who is to say He won't surrender more than his share of homers up here?<br /><br /> He was solid in his Met innings in 2015 so far, maybe that will continue, but Verrett gives up more homers than any real Mets prospect that I can recall.<br /><br />I think Gee would be better, unless he lost velocity and was solid of late in AAA purely on savvy.

Against RHP, in 59 ABs, he has one XBH, the aforementioned double. Both homers were against LHP.<br /><br />I love his heart, his soul, everything about him as a player. <br /><br />But: the back.<br /><br />I just hope that TC realizes that David Wright is the superstar of days gone by. If he's lost his pop, he's just a hot-hitting Ruben Tejada. <br /><br />Nobody in the media wants to write this story yet, and I don't blame them. I wouldn't do it either. I just don't want to watch him start another 5 games in a row with TC continually asking him, "How ya feeling? Do you want some rest? No?"<br /><br />James PrellerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-30216087293209600132015-09-08T09:50:45.487-04:002015-09-08T09:50:45.487-04:00Sign Cespedes.
