Albert Almora Jr.’s time in New York was brief and unspectacular

In his season preview for Albert Almora Jr., the incomparable Richard Staff (whom you should follow on Twitter if you are not doing so already) remembered some outfielders whom the Mets acquired to fill a specific void on the roster—think Alejandro De Aza, John Mayberry Jr., Chris Young, and players of that ilk—and wondered whether the aforementioned Almora would succeed where those others had failed. With his brief stint in orange and blue over, I think it’s safe to say Almora has found himself a home in that group of outfielders, which is not company you want to find yourself in.
