Mets without options
According to Baseball Prospectus (via) these Mets are on the 40-man roster but have no options left…
- Manny Acosta
- Nick Evans
- Luis Hernandez
- Chin-Lung Hu
- Pat Misch
I’m going to venture a guess and say Acosta, Hu and Misch make the team, while Evans and Hernandez trickle to Triple-A. It’s just something to keep your eye on through Spring Training.
"I give a [bleep] how this team plays."
