The Mets need to play Luis Guillorme more
The Mets, despite all their successes in the early portion of the 2022 season, have had a rather noticeable hole at the designated hitter position. They came into the year with three primary designated hitters: Robinson Canó, who was designated for assignment when the rosters condensed as May descended upon us, J.D. Davis, who is hitting .230/.326/.51 with a 103 wRC+, albeit with some promising underlying numbers, and Dominic Smith, who is hitting an even more uninspiring .189/.274/.243 with a 61 wRC+. It is, definitively, not what you want.
Enter: Luis Guillorme.
