If the offense continues to slump, the Mets could turn to top prospect Ronny Mauricio who is thriving in Triple-A.
Ronny Mauricio took a bat that had sizzled in the Dominican Winter League and carried it over to spring training, where he blasted four home runs in just 33 at-bats.
“What stood out for me this past spring training was his mental growth,” Lindor said before the Mets finished a series against the NationalsThursday at Citi Field. “[Mauricio is now a] better hitter, better fielder, [but] his ability to adapt and to learn stuff and to stick with them, that’s what stood out to me.”
The 22-year-old has gone through the minor leagues as a shortstop, and, as manager Buck Showalter said, “He’s smart enough to know who’s playing shortstop here.” “He’s open to anything and everything that might make him more of an option to play in the big leagues one day.” If second base becomes his ticket to the majors, the switch hitter could push Jeff McNeil to left field and take some at-bats that have been earmarked for Luis Guillorme.
This spring, Lindor said, he noticed that the Dominican Republic native listened to anything that was said and absorbed everything, trying to apply any direction he received.
