The Mets have realized that I am on to them, and now have announced that Dom Smith play LF on Friday.
Thats all well and good, but the reason they are feeding reporters for Dom not playing is…..wait for it…..he has a stress fracture caused by switching back and forth positions…..in 2019. 2019. Not 2020. Not this spring. 2019. That’s the version behind the Newsday paywall. You haven’t seen this story because it’s behind the Newsday paywall because Newsday thinks you are going to pay to read their stuff which of course you are not.
That’s one version.
Then the Anthony DiComo, official Major League Baseball Blogger, is selling that they “wanted to avoid taxing” Dom.
So which is it….”taxing him” – what does that even mean? They have played 60 games since October 2019…….or is there an 18 month old stress factor.
My hogwash detector is screaming.
What’s the truth Mets?
And where is @nycsporty who said I was making a big deal out of nothing. There’s clearly SOMETHING Sporty. Now…..kneel before Zod and apologize.
