The Nats starter seemed to have a pretty good book on Cespedes at bat last night. He was an absolute sucker for a slider low and away each time up. Instead of going with it and trying to drive it to the right side he tried to pull it and was early on it. If this continues we'll see a steady stream of groundouts to short and 3rd like we saw last nite. He also strikes out a lot so he should fit in well with the rest of the team.
Being that this is his first time in the National League I'm not sure if this is to his advantage or if he will struggle at bat. Since this is his 4th team in the last 12 months I'm thinking that he's not an asset in the clubhouse. Mets don't have much of an investment in him so he may be worth taking a chance on, for now.
