Gotay Traded to the Mets

The Royals and Mets pulled the trigger and exchanged minor league second baseman. The Mets got Ruben Gotay and the Royals got Jeff Keppinger. As I said yesterday, I’m thrilled to see Gotay dealt away. He wasn’t a good fit for this team. He’s a career .242 hitter who swings out of his shoes at every pitch. Keppinger on the other hand is a career .284 hitter in 116 at bats and he’s only struck out seven times.
