Back by popular demand after the Labor Day holiday, here’s a look at how many of the former Cubs traded away at this year’s deadline performed over the last several games.
Javier Báez
In the last update, I noted Báez’ (and other Mets players) little “thumbs-down” kerfuffle with Mets fans.
The very next day, Báez nearly singlehandedly won a game for the Mets and recaptured the love of their fans.
The Mets’ August 31 game was the completion of a game suspended back in April. They trailed the Marlins 5-1 going to the bottom of the ninth.
