Still, Young’s lack of offensive punch should take him out of the discussion as far as being a starter in the outfield for the Mets is concerned. The Mets will likely be going with Juan Lagares full time in center field, and he isn’t expected to be a plus offensive piece – at least not by next season. Having both Young and Lagares as starters in the outfield would be a repeat of the end of 2013. It’s something that shouldn’t even be under consideration.
