The New York Mets have Monday off but made some news by opening up MCU Park in Brooklyn as an alternate summer campsite. The park usually belongs to the Brooklyn Cyclones, but without a minor league season, the field sat empty.
Mets announced they’re opening the MCU Park alternate site today.
They added these seven to the 60-man pool:
RHP Matt Blackham
LHP Stephen Gonsalves
INF Jake Hager
RHP Jordan Humphreys
RHP Franklyn Kilome
C David Rodríguez
LHP Thomas SzapuckiPlayer pool is at 58 now

With the Mets increasing their player pool to 58, the alternate site was a necessity.
