Jason Bay continues to be a bust for the New York Mets
32-year old righty swinging LF Jason Bay continues to be a bust for the Mets. He has played in 17 games so far in August and he is 16 for 66 (.242 avg, .739 OPS) with 12 runs scored, 3 homers, 7 RBIs and 1 stolen base. So Bay is showing some signs of life with the bat this month for the Mets. Bay has played in 97 games so far this year and he is 86 for 360 (.239 avg, .670 OPS) with 48 runs scored, 9 homers, 43 RBIs and 10 stolen bases. Bay has now played in 192 games in his first two years with the Mets and he is 176 of 708 (.249 avg, .709 OPS) with 96 runs scored, 15 homers, 90 RBIs and 20 stolen bases. The Mets need Bay to live up to his paycheck at some time in the very near future as he has not been too good for them yet, despite being paid very well.
