The Mets’ outfield should be one of their strengths this season

The Mets still have questions at a few positions, but the outfield is not one of them. The original plan this offseason was to have Jeff McNeil move to left field after Jed Lowrie was signed to a two-year deal, but even with injuries to both Lowrie and Todd Frazier, the outfield is still well-manned.

Leading the way to start the season are Brandon Nimmo and Michael Conforto. Nimmo is expected to slot into the leadoff spot and man left field until others return from their injuries.
