Buck Showalter believed it was helpful for the Mets to express their frustrations to MLB at being hit a league-high 19 times in 20 games entering Friday.
The Mets, according to Showalter, have been hit 15 times at or above the shoulder since spring training, though he thinks all instances were unintentional. The meeting Friday included pitchers and position players from the Mets and MLB reps Dan Otero, a former pitcher, and Morgan Sword, the league’s executive vice president of baseball operations. It was supposed to be held last week, but was delayed due to logistics.
“There was a lot of give and take,” Showalter said of the meeting. “We got all aspects of it. Morgan presented some things that they may not have known about, and [our players] presented some things. That’s how you make good decisions: You listen to the people that are actually throwing the baseball and hitting the baseball. And you listen to people that are doing all the work to improve our game and try to keep it safe.
