Following a four-month hiatus, Major League Baseball has finally returned in the form of a second spring training or summer camp as some teams prefer to call it.
While it’s great to see players back on the field, they’ll only have three weeks to prepare for the upcoming season. As a result, there’s a greater risk for a significant number of injuries during spring training 2.0.
With that in mind, teams have been looking to strengthen their squad ever since the roster freeze was lifted earlier this week. Looking to add depth to their roster, the New York Mets signed a handful of players on Tuesday including veteran Jared Hughes.
