David Wright is officially a bum right now. His batting average and power rankings are totally in the shitter. What happened to a dude who was supposed to be one of the National League’s All-Stars on the level of Albert Pujols and Ryan Howard?
Late last season Wright took one to the dome in a home game versus the Giants. Ever since then Wright hasn’t been the same batter. This was confirmed on ESPN’s Baseball Tonight. Wright’s average hasn’t dropped to the Mendoza Line, but he is well under .250 and that is no place for a franchise player.
I have a feeling that David Wright is a nice guy but he is destined to finish last in the all-time Metropolitans ballot. No one ever really gets back in the swing of things after being concussed. I went to the stadium Sunday night and watched Wright fail to plate runners ISP in two separate innings.
That’s when I knew that the Mets needed to start looking to replace their third baseman.
