There are pros and cons to social media (that’s the understatement of the century). Regardless of which one you think is more prevalent, it’s cool that there’s a chance to interact with professional athletes. The thought of “What if they actually see what I say?” is in the back of many minds. We don’t know how much they all see, but Mets reliever Adam Ottavino has apparently seen enough on Instagram.
Last week, MLBNerds continued its preseason rankings for each position by looking at the game’s top 50 relievers (in their eyes). New York has several hurlers on this list, but three are ranked between 40 and 50: Brooks Raley (45), David Robertson (46), and Ottavino (49).
