Jose Reyes isn’t upset that Francisco Lindor has replaced him in the Mets’ record books. In fact, the team’s former shortstop is pleased about it.
Lindor passed Reyes for most RBIs by a shortstop in a single season. He now has 85, four more than the 81 Reyes produced in 2006. Daniel Murphy didn’t think back to the 2015 NLCS or his time as a villain tormenting his former team. As he returned to Citi Field, he thought back to his rookie year, in 2009, the first season of the new stadium.Murphy led the Mets to the 2015 World Series, but wasn’t brought back, and signed with the NL East rival Nationals, where he frequently torched the Mets. But that didn’t stop him from returning to his old stomping grounds.
