It’s a shame Ray doesn’t come to any Mets events. I met him a few years ago and he was great to talk to.

Dumb idea of the day: Should Eric Young Move to Second Base?
In the end, this could all come down to what the Mets can get in exchange for Murphy in a trade. Considering the way Young changed the Mets’ lineup with his speed, it’s hard to imagine him not being with the Mets next season, and if they can move him to a more comfortable defensive position, that would be an added benefit. But it all hinges on if the Mets are comfortable trading away Murphy and get a fair offer for him, because Young being moved to second base is an intriguing proposition that could work out very well for the Mets.
