Since the Mets may have tried to move Travis for Lucroy and then floated him through waivers for offers..

Would you consider moving Travis to LF if we drop further?

Yes would would need a catcher next year but Travis might be good as an OF starter or potential backup/replacement for either Bruce Cespedes or Granderson in the future. He might mix in nicely with Conforto or Nimmo if need be.

Just a thought.

deGrom with some uninspired pitching, the team playing uninspired baseball behind him. Not a good time to be uninspired.

Gotta be concerned about deGrom. Dog day swoon and he heats up as the weather cools down? I hope so. We need de to be BIG, or average even. Keep us in ballgames.

He was the 1st starting pitcher in Mets history to give up double figure hits in consecutive games?!?! That's hard to believe.

No Record Breaker card for that unless deGrom calls and requests one.

The Mets' left fielder is their best offensive player on the team.

Travis would be like 8th on my organizational LF depth chart haha...

I can think of no reason to expect that D'Arnaud would hit any better as an outfielder than he has as a catcher. I would hope the Mets would have far better options for a corner outfield spot than trying to convert D'Arnaud from catcher.

[Benjamin Grimm]

The reasons for putting Travis in the outfield were to keep his bat in the lineup while also making room for Plawecki to play regularly.

Neither of those reasons seem all that valid right now.

Plaw hitting .306 in Vegas, but I think the die is cast on him. AAAA prime.
