Can Brett Baty Play Left Field?
With the signing of Bo Bichette to play third base, infielder Brett Baty is a man without a position. There have been reports that Baty could play first base, a position he spent last off-season learning, or left field, a position he has some but limited experience playing. The Mets need outfielders, and while I would not expect him to be an everyday player out there, is this a position Baty is truly capable of playing?
Between the majors and minors, Baty has played a total of 250 innings across 30 games in left field.
