Kirk Nieuwenhuis Should Not Lose Playing Time For Anyone
There has been a lot of talk lately about the logjam in the outfield that will occur when Bay returns from his fractured rib.

Forget Captain Kirk, Nieuwenhuis should be called Captain Clutch
The 2012 Mets are succeeding thanks to a great record in close games. It is up for debate if they will be able to continue this performance throughout the year but for right now they are 11-3 in games decided by one or two runs.

Mets Teammates On Rookie Phenom Kirk Nieuwenhuis
Kirk Nieuwenhuis; it’s almost as hard to spell his name as it is for pitchers to get him out. Kirk came up this year after Opening Day to replace the injured Andres Torres and has performed with the finesse of a seasoned veteran. Whether it’s in the middle of the order, or leading off, the 24-year old centerfielder has found a way to get on base.
He doesn’t particularly...
