Our 2021 preview series for the New York Mets continues today. We completed our trip around the infield, so now let’s turn our attention to the outfield situation at Citi Field.
The New York Mets continue what’s become a trend for them, offense over defense in the outfield. A lot of that has to do with the lack of the DH in the NL in 2021, but it’s still the truth.
The Mets have decided they are okay with having one of, if not the, worst defensive outfields in MLB. They can accept that because they’ll likely have one of, if not the, best offensive outfields in MLB.
