  • Winker's Mets Journey: From Villain to Hero

    01:38|
    Jesse Winkers 2024 season with the Mets was a rollercoaster of highs and lows. Starting as a platoon designated hitter, he enjoyed a strong start, but a grade two oblique strain in May and subsequent back tightness cut his season short. Despite playing just 26 games, Winkers best day was April 5th, going 3-5 with 2 triples, a double, and 2 RBIs. His .229 average, .309 OBP, .400 SLG, 1 HR, and 95 wRC+ were not as impressive as his 2024 playoff performance. As a free agent, a return to the Mets seems unlikely, but Winkers transformation from villain to hero in 2024 will be remembered fondly by fans. Checkout Solipillow.com
