Next Arrow NewFeat_Image

  Yesterday’s trade for Collin Cowgill: Mets Acquire Collin Cowgill got me thinking are there other names out there to look to maximize the possible platoons for the Mets in the OF.  Unless the Mets get Cody Ross or make a splash trade for a true OF it’s possible the Mets could be looking at platoon situations …
