Every homer Cespedes hit in spring training I tried to watch the video of - like Stanton and Judge, his power is simply freakish - he rips a homer to left, not looking like he had a perfect swing, and it goes out on a line and clears the fence by 100 feet. <br /><br />Those kind of guys can hit homers so easily, even when trying not to. That said, that 2 run single when he had 2 strikes was beautiful to see...and interestingly, they posted BEFORE that bags full hit that his career average with bags full is .451. I expect GREATNESS from Cespedes this year. I truly am hoping he has the best Mets offensive year ever.<br /><br />And Nimmo on base 4 times? What a deep outfield when Conforto returns next week - could/should be best Mets outfield ever.Tom Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032383157195393857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-77114388871652745042018-03-30T02:18:10.536-04:002018-03-30T02:18:10.536-04:00From Newsday:

Cespedes’ two singles came on 0-and-2 counts.<br /><br />Callaway credited hitting coach Pat Roessler with instilling in the hitters a mindset that they don’t need to homer to be successful.<br /><br />“[Roessler] is about as thorough as can be,” Callaway said. “He wants all of our guys to be an all-around hitter, not just be a one-facet guy. Go up there and swing for the fences is not going to work.”<br />——————————————————————————-<br />Thank you God that I don’t have to hear the ole “we’re a homerun hitting team, that’s just what we are” any more. I can just feel my stress level decrease after that news alone. It’s going to be a great year!<br />TexasGusCCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-33568074834024664712018-03-30T00:15:24.603-04:002018-03-30T00:15:24.603-04:00Bruce only got on 3 times...bench him!
