Just when we thought Dominic Smith couldn’t become any more irrelevant to the future of the New York Mets, he goes out and gets off to a hot start in Spring Training. Granted, these games me as much as points in Whose Line Is Anyway. Nevertheless, it’s nice to see.
Smith hit his first home run of exhibition action on Sunday against the St. Louis Cardinals. He’ll need plenty more before the final decisions are made before he has any shot at making the Opening Day roster.
Spring Training statistics don’t tell as much about a player’s future.
