Listed below are some notable nuggets that occurred throughout Mets’ spring coaching motion on Thursday:
Third and lengthy
Third baseman Eduardo Escobar crushed his second homer of the spring, off a dangling changeup from Josh Rogers, within the Mets’ 7-3 loss to the Nationals at Clover Park. Escobar, who hit 28 dingers final season, is 6-for-18 within the Grapefruit League.
Lights out
Throughout an evening recreation, Mets outfielders misplaced balls within the lights. Brandon Nimmo couldn’t find a fly ball from Alcides Escobar and needed to dive backwards, the ball bouncing off his glove. Mark Canha by no means noticed a lazy fly ball from Juan Soto, lifting his arms in confusion earlier than the ball bounced a number of ft to his left.
Caught my eye
Tomas Nido, who's having a pleasant spring, knocked a house run that was referred to as a double — fortunately replay was not used to overturn the ruling — and lined an RBI single into left area.
Friday’s schedule
The Mets go to the Cardinals at Roger Dean Stadium for a 1:05 p.m. recreation. Jacob deGrom is the scheduled starter however could also be scratched after reporting some tightness in his proper shoulder.
