Juan Soto Returns, Mets Hope for Turnaround

0:00On April 22nd, the New York Mets are catching a break tonight with Juan Soto back in the line-up after missing time with a calf strain since April. Third, he's serving as the designated hitter and batting second against the Minnesota twins, just what they need during their brutal 12-game losing. Streak, Soto was scorching hot before the injury, hitting 355 with solid power, one homer, and five RBI's. He didn't check in much with the squad during the skid since they were mostly on the road, but he's all in now to help turn things around. Team mates and fans are buzzing because the Mets bats have gone quiet, struggling to push runs across. Soto's presence alone should light a fire, especially with the whole line of interretting lately. On the mound tomorrow, Christian Scott makes his big league return after 642 days away following Tommy John's surgery that ended his. Rookie year early, the Mets are sliding him into the rotation while shifting David Peterson to relief duty. These moves come at the perfect time for a squad that's got the talent to snap out of this funk and charge toward the playoffs.
