2. Murphy Becoming Human
So, is there anything Daniel Murphy cannot do?
The guy has been so good that the Mets organization might have no other choice but to bring him back in 2016. Sometimes a player just reaches a level in which he immerses himself into the fabric of that organization’s history to such a point, that no other option but to keep him remains.
Having said that, to rely on Murph to keep up the incredible, MLB-record setting pace of homering in six-straight games would be foolish.
Collins and the rest of the lineup needs to go into the series thinking there needs to be a new hero. If Murphy continues to tear it up, then fantastic, we’ll crown him even further. But it just can’t be expected.
David Wright, Yoenis Cespedes, Curtis Granderson – somebody will need to step it up to another level.
