Mark Vientos see reasons to hope that Mets Breakout will come soon

Don’t be fooled by Mark Vientos’ ugly statistical line to start the season.

Yes, even after his single in the 10: 5 victory on Tuesday against Miami on a cold Citi field, the third Baseman is only 5-to-40 with two doubles in the season and without Homer.

But after the victory, Viientos insisted that he is not far away and that he is satisfied with his previous plate this young season.

“I just trust the process,” said Vientos. If I can continue to have good bats, you will fall in love with me. “

Perhaps the big one for the right field on Tuesday was a sign for this, since Vientos came empty for the second game in a row with a rocket exclusion on the outer field.

His 105-mile shot, in order to break down the floor of fourth place, turned into the middle on Tuesday after being robbed by a goal during the victory on Monday.

“(Monday) he had a few walks and smoked a ball and today he met one (105) to the midfield,” said Carlos Mendoza. “He controls the strike zone. There is good signs that he can get around and I like the settings. He carries out his schedule.”

Nevertheless, the start left him with a few unpleasant numbers, far away what he did in 2024 when he scored 27 Homer in 111 games after taking over the third base job from Brett Baty.

And on Tuesday he was in third place twice, focused on and struck in front of the base.

When he jogged for the first time on the single, Vientos stretched out his arms in obvious relief.

“I just have fun with the fun game and happy to have a goal,” said Vientos.

On Monday, the President of Baseball Operations David Stearns said that the organization had lost no confidence in VISTOS – even though he had added, he hoped that he would reduce the persecution of parking spaces outside the strike zone.

However, the metrics show that VISTOS was much more selective this year, and he said that this was one of the reasons why he is expected to go through soon.



“I don’t think I’m hunting at all,” said Vientos. “I feel really good on the plate. I see the ball well and put good swings on the ball. It is only baseball to be baseball.”

Vientos had a company with a slow start, since Baty also opened to two weeks for two weeks, and the upper half of the line -up – especially Pete Alonso – wore the crime.

The success of the team has undoubtedly contributed to burdening the composite members of the team.

“He prepares well, engages and plays a good defense,” said Mendoza. “You want to see some results as a competitor, but I haven’t seen any frustration of him.”
