Mets over-under

by Ted Berg on February 21st, 2012 at 10:01 am

Context: Daniel Murphy appears to be the favorite to open the season as the Mets’ starting second baseman, barring injury. Murphy has played 24 games at second in the Majors and 19 in the minors. His 2010 and 2011 seasons ended due to injuries suffered at second base. Both first baseman Ike Davis and third baseman David Wright endured injuries in 2011, and, with middle infielders Justin Turner and Ronny Cedeno ticketed for the Mets’ bench, Murphy seems the most likely to replace Davis or Wright if either misses time or gets traded.

Daniel Murphy will play 100 games at second base for the Mets in 2012.
