The Mets won’t be just a two-man show at second base.
Though Jeff McNeil and Robinson Cano are the primary options for the position, manager Buck Showalter went a different route Monday, installing Luis Guillorme at second base in the opener of a three-game series against the Phillies.
“I don’t want to get ahead of ourselves just because Robinson started out well, to just lose sight that we need to be smart about his playing time,” Showalter said beforeEdwin Diaz will be eligible for removal from the bereavement list on Tuesday. The Mets closer was expected to return Monday night, following the death of his grandfather in Puerto Rico.
Seaver’s family will attend, in addition to Hall of Fame catcher Mike Piazza and team owners Steve and Alex Cohen. “They have a chance to have a special team,” Showalter said. “They have got a lot of weapons and they have got people that know how to use them. They are a good baseball team. They have got a lot of ways they can beat you. They are very potent and it’s going to be a good test for us.”
