Lagares went 2-for-3 with a run scored and a stolen base in Friday's split-squad game against the Braves.

EDGE Analysis

He's off to a slow start this spring, hitting .167 (4-for-24), but Lagares' spot as the Mets' fourth outfielder is secure due to his excellent glove. How much playing time he gets in 2017 will depend more on the health of other players on the roster than his own performance, but he will offer a bit of speed when he does manage to draw into the starting lineup.
