Role in 2017?

The new year has arrived, and we wonder who will form the 2017 New York Mets. Just saying the year and our favorite team together brings a bounce to my heart (though that could be this song playing in my ears as well.)

Ty Kelly’s role is certainly up in the air regarding the major league squad. He could battle for a bench spot in the spring, but the Mets are right now, as healthy, stacked there.

Sure, T.J. Rivera should take nothing for granted, and with similar long-time minor league paths, neither will ever do so. I expect, however, to at some point see Kelly brought up, excelling for the Vegas squad while providing the depth the Mets need.

And who knows? Maybe Ty and I will also be collaborating on a screenplay at some point during the season.
