NEW YORK -- Daniel Vogelbach was happy to be leaping up the standings and to reunite with Francisco Lindor, his travel teammate during high school days in Florida.
"Just as good as he is now as he was back then," Vogelbach said of Lindor on Saturday, a day after the Mets acquired Vogelbach from Pittsburgh for rookie reliever Colin Holderman. "I can't talk highly enough about the person he was then and playing against him it seems like he's the same guy now. The guy always has a smile on his face.
