For as troublesome as much of 2018 was, the New York Mets did see multiple players put together surprisingly productive years. Brandon Nimmo made a strong case for an everyday lineup spot. Jeff McNeil wasn’t even a prospect when the year began. Now he’s one of the team’s best hitters.
Let’s also not forget how amazing Zack Wheeler was after several lost years due to injury. We witnessed Seth Lugo become a really good reliever and a few others show growth late in the year.
In 2019, more Mets have an opportunity to impress.
