Full House

The Mets uniform assignments as they arrive at Spring Training are below. There’s been some significant shuffling, with Jeff McNeil dropping 62 digits; new assignments for guys like Luis Guillorme; and a few returning guys resuming previous numerical identities like Gavin Cecchini, Dilson Herrera and Juerys Familia.

A few of the new guys we were wondering about got assignments (Keon Broxton, JD Davis, Justin Wilson, etc) and the Mets seem to be at least trying to restore order to the universe, getting their coaching staff largely in the 50s where they belong and dressing their just-in-camp-for-the-catching-equipment guys in the 70s. Clip and save!

Because you can never have enough infielders Danny Espinosa has been invited to camp and doesn’t yet appear to be have been assigned a number — 25 is a good guess as its the only available between 1 and 69!

    I’m sure this is just an error and you already know this, but 24 is Robinson Cano. It is not vacant

  2. pat j Cioffi says:

    Hallelujah!

  3. Jim A says:

    A very minor nitpick: according to a most reliable source (mbtn.net), 23 was last worn not by Adrian Gonzalez, but by Matt den Dekker.

  4. Greg says:

    Most recent 11 was Tony DeFrancesco, coach for the last sixteen games of 2018.

  5. Jim A says:

    Sucks being P.J. Conlon. Losing his number for a “quality control coach”? I had no idea that was even a thing.

  6. Judah says:

    When I clicked on Danny Esponsia on the Mets website, it says he’s number 8

  7. Judah says:

    Hechaverria sent out that he’s wearing #25

  8. John S says:

    DiSarcina is messing up the flo! And I still don’t understand those legit pitchers in the 60s. Otherwise I’m lovin’ it.
    McNeil at 6 feels right… but hope he’s not cursed now.
