Summary
Mets Designate Austin Slater for Assignment, Shifting Outfield Focus The Mets have designated Austin Slater for assignment, a move that comes as the team shifts its outfield focus. Slater, who joined the club a month ago, had a .250 batting average but was no longer a fit for the teams plans. The Mets are looking to optimize their roster, and Tyrone Taylor is expected to be the primary bench outfielder. Vidal Bruján and Brett Baty are also options for depth. This roster shuffling is common in baseball as teams evaluate and adjust throughout the season. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
