The New York Mets re-sign Scott Hairston
The Mets have re-signed 31-year old righty swinging outfielder Scott Hairston to a 1-year deal. Hairston played in 79 games for the Mets last year and he was 31 for 132 (.235 avg, .773 OPS) with 20 runs scored, 7 homers, 24 RBIs and 1 stolen base. He has now played in 643 games in his first 8 years in the majors and he is 444 of 1,820 (.244 avg, .740 OPS) with 224 runs scored, 75 homers, 222 RBIs and 26 stolen bases. This was a good move for the Mets as Hairston provided some nice pop off the bench for them last year.
