Cespedes’ Sudden Return to Health Complicating Mets’ 2020 Plans

Error 0:

The last thing the New York Mets and their fans thought they’d be dealing with is an excess of talent on their roster this season, especially in the outfield.

That is becoming a distinct possibility with each passing day in Port St. Lucie as former All-Star outfielder Yoenis Cespedes is proving to be healthier than they anticipated this spring. They weren’t expecting the oft-injured slugger to be ready by mid-season at the soonest, but he’s crowing that he’s going to be ready long before that. He’s feeling so good that he’s breaking his vow to ignore the media this season.
