Defense is an issue for the current New York Mets team. For a few years, it has been one of the reasons why they’ve struggled.
The organization is only a few years removed from their last Gold Glove winner. In 2014, outfielder Juan Lagares dazzled with his defensive skills. He could have probably won another since, but poor offense and injuries kept him out of many games in the last four seasons.
The Mets don’t exactly have a rich history of Gold Glove winners. Keith Hernandez leads the way with six.
