Spring training is meant for MLB clubs in Florida and Arizona to appropriately prepare for the season ahead. Not only to get players in game shape but to also figure out who will fill out their respective rosters ahead of Opening Day. That’s not all it’s for, though.
With mostly day games and not a ton of traveling (like there is in the regular season, at least), it’s the perfect time for teammates to bond and create some of that coveted clubhouse chemistry. It’s a fun time for lots of players. However, I’m pretty sure it isn’t possible to find someone having as much fun in Spring Training as Mets third baseman Eduardo Escobar.
