The New York Mets are shaking up their lineup with a potential left field battle between Tyrone Taylor, Brett Baty, and prospect Carson Benge. Benge, despite a rough patch in Triple-A, showcased elite contact skills and power in Double-A, making him a strong contender for the opening day roster. His left-handed bat, speed, and arm add upside to the right-handed power bats in the lineup. The Mets also acquired Bo Bichette, whose elite contact and line-drive style stabilize the offense, and traded for Freddy Peralta, adding a strikeout ace and depth to their rotation.
