Catching up with Mike Carp

Nice to see Carp finished up strong. In August, he had an OPS over .1000, including 16 extra base hits (and 5 HRs). In his first full season at AA at the young age of 22, Carp hit .299 with 17 HRs and 72 RBIs. At the same time, he showed a nice eye, and had an OBP over .400.

It will be interesting to see if the Mets plan to give him a shot next year (either on his own or platooning with Evans) or if they decide to bring in a bopper at 1B.

They're talking about taking on Delgado's option...
