To Hech Our Own

[G-Fafif]

Multiple reports have Mets signing Adeiny Hechavarria as backup infielder guy. Legit SS behind Amed.

[Frayed Knot]

Signed just in case Rosario's game goes into a hand-basket.

I'm all for minor league depth, but if Lowrie can play short at all I'd rather have a bat on the major league bench than a glove.

[Edgy MD]

That's probably the sort of if they won't have an answer to until they need one, so I understand getting another shortstop-first option.



Bad news for Luis Guillorme, though.

A little surprising, because I thought they kinda liked him. He sure did take a tumble down the depth chart.

[Edgy MD]

He got chubby.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Put more effort into his beard than his fitness. Also, Sandy-tainted.



Hechaverria isn't about to blossom into a legit productive player but is the kind of guy who could handle a few weeks at the big leagues if needed.

[Edgy MD]

Here he is in spring 2018.

If you find any shots from this season, please share. Hopefully he's not still trying to smuggle that sack of rice under his shirt.

[Lefty Specialist]

Depth at AAA. I'm fine with this.
