We all miss Spring Training. We all miss the Mets. To help with the withdrawal here are some of the highlights from Mets Spring Training one year ago today - March 9, 2021.
Mets 5
Cardinals 3 (Box
Score). Kevin Pillar CF 1 for 4 with an RBI and a K; Jeff McNeil 2B 0 for 3 with 1 K; Pete Alonso 1B 0 for 1, 3 walks, 1 K; Dominic Smith DH 0 for 3, 1 K; James McCann C 1 for 3 with a K; Jonathan Villar SS 0 for 3 with a K; Brandon
Drury 3B 1 for 2; Albert Almora jr. RF 1 for 2; Johneshwy Fargas LF 1 for 2 with a double; Ronny Mauricio 1 for 1 with 2 RBIs; Taijuan
Walker 2 innings, 2 hits, 2 runs, 2 walks, 2 Ks; Edwin Diaz, 1 inning, no runs, no hits, 2 Ks; Miguel Castro, 1 inning, no hits, no runs, 2 Ks; Sam
McWilliams, 1 inning, no runs, no hits, 3 walks, 1 K..
NY Post: Mets ‘excited’ to see Pete Alonso walk three times. “After a seesaw 2020 season, Alonso and hitting coach Chili Davis identified strike-zone discipline as an area for improvement this spring. Last year, according to Rojas, pitchers could follow a blueprint with Alonso and often induced him to swing at bad pitches. In six games this spring, Alonso owns a 1.163 OPS.”

Post: Sam McWilliams narrowly avoided disaster in a 31-pitch ninth inning
in which he walked the bases loaded. McWilliams escaped without a run scoring for
his second save this spring.

It's actually kind of wild how well nearly all the Mets' top prospects are doing in Grapefruit League play. Following this two-run single, Ronny Mauricio is hitting .455: pic.twitter.com/siCkZHaXXn
