Bo Bichette Returns to Shortstop for Mets

0:00On May 3rd, Boba-Shet is sliding back to shortstop for the New York Mets this Sunday, his first start there since joining the team. He came over from the Toronto Blue Jays this offseason, signed mainly to handle third base, a brand new spot for him in the majors. Injuries hit the Mets hard at that position. Francisco Lindor has been sideline for a while, and then Rodney Mauricio went down Saturday, landing on the injured list right away. The team scramble for options, calling up Vidal Brujan from the minors for some depth. But Brujan is a career 199 hitter in the big leagues, so they can't rely on him every day. That put the ball in Boshet's court, he's the only guy left on the roster who can really handle short. It's like coming full circle after years owning that spot of north. Now the Mets hope this shake up steadies the infield while they wait for their starters to heal up. That's the story for today, New York Mets news today, driven by AI.
