Brett Baty Stellar Through June At Triple-A
6 months agoNew York Mets third baseman Brett Baty has performed exceptionally well through June at Triple-A Syracuse and could be nearing a return to the major leagues. Since June 1, the former first-round selection holds a .367/.407/.755 slash line with five long balls, 16 RBI, and a 3:6 BB:K ratio. In addition, Baty has begun to log starts at the keystone, which he has never done before in his professional career. This is a good sign that the Mets value his bat and want to him to return to the majors as soon as possible. Jose Iglesias has served as the primary second baseman in Queens for now as Jeff McNeil has struggled throughout the early part of the season. Baty is worth a look in deeper redraft leagues once he rejoins the Mets, as he should gain second-base eligibility.
