AI Summary

The Mets selected the contract of 21-year-old outfielder A.J. Ewing from Triple-A Syracuse to bolster their roster.

Luis Robert New York Mets

The 21-year-old Ewing is joining a Mets club desperate for any sort of boost. He hit .339/.447/.514 with two homers and 17 steals in 30 games between Double-A Binghamton and Triple-A Syracuse. The power won't carry over very well, but the on-base skills might and he figures to remain aggressive on the basepaths, potentially making him of some use in mixed leagues. He figures to start regularly against righties at least until Luis Robert Jr. returns and the Mets reevaluate things.
