Prior to last season, the New York Mets acquired veteran second baseman Robinson Canó via a trade with the Seattle Mariners. Canó was supposed to bolster the lineup in 2019 but instead experienced an injury-plagued campaign. The eight-time All-Star played in just 107 games, the second-lowest single-season total of his career.
Canó wants anything but a repeat of last year. Having said that, the second baseman is pondering over some workload strategies ahead of the 2020 campaign.
“Once you set those kind of goals, 125 [games], it’s kind of like for a guy that loves this game, loves to play baseball, loves to be out on the field, you don’t want to have that mindset,” Canó said, per Mike Puma of the New York Post.
