Coming off a breakout run in the big leagues after debuting in the majors post-deadline last year, (following 10 seasons in the minors), and a nice showing in the World Baseball Classic this past March, Joey Meneses got off to a slow start in his second season in the majors with Washington’s Nationals.
Over his first 14 games this season, Meneses, 30, went 13 for 58 (.224/.274/.293) with four doubles, four walks, and 12 Ks in 62 plate appearances, but his manager said last week he saw a few positive signs the slugger was close to where they want him to be.
