Mets Trim Spring Training Roster, Prospects Sent Down

0:00On this March 15th, here's what's making headlines for the New York Metz. The New York Metz have trimmed their spring training roster by reassigning 11 players to minor league camp. That leaves 53 players still in big league camp as they push toward opening day. The group includes three pitchers, one catcher, four infielders and three outfielders. Among the outfielders sent down is AJ Ewing, a 21-year-old who's been climbing prospectlists fast. He had a strong spring hitting 381 with one home run, six runs batted in, four stolen bases, and an on-base plus slugging of one point, 0, 9, 0. Meanwhile, infielder Ryan Clifford, another top prospect, had a tough time at the plate. He win just two for 20 with seven strikeouts, which likely factored into his move. On a brighter note for the pitchers, 23-year-old Ryan Lambert impressed in relief. He threw three scoreless innings and struck out eight of the nine batters he faced. With camp rolling on, the Metz are focusing on final cuts and position battles.
