Opening Day is in limbo, leaving plenty of time to check back on years past. Before the New York Mets take the field for a game that counts at some point in 2020, I’ve been checking regularly on past Opening Day performances, scores, and lineups.
An intriguing fact I continually come across is how the Mets will probably have a completely different defensive alignment on Opening Day than they did back in 2018. A lot can change in two years—but this much?
If we go back just two years, the Mets have only one guy in line to start the same position he did back in 2018: shortstop Amed Rosario.
