Our 2021 preview series for the New York Mets now continues around the infield, finishing at the hot corner.
Third base has been a problem area for the New York Mets the last few years. Jeff McNeil plugged in there every once in a while, J.D. Davis has played there and likely will be the starter in 2021, and Todd Frazier has held down the spot.
No matter who the Mets put there though, it’s been a struggle. Offensively they’ve gotten more than enough from McNeil and Davis, but the defense has lagged far behind.
