MARLON BYRD RUMORS & GOSSIP
Byrd Homers, Marcum Still Winless, Mets Fall To Reds 4-3
For a while, it looked like Terry Collin’s weird lineup choice going into the evening would actually work when Marlon Byrd ripped a three-run home run in the bottom of third. Perhaps unsurprisingly, however, the Mets would fail to score again the rest of the night and could not stage a comeback after Jay Bruce hit a go-ahead home run off Shaun Marcum in the sixth. To be fair to...
Is Marlon Byrd Finally Coming Around?
Most of the attention concerning the Met outfield the past few weeks has gone to Jordany Valdespin, both for his character and his play on the field. However, there has been one player who has very quietly got on a roll, and may be able to plug a hole in the still-fluctuating outfield: Marlon Byrd.
Byrd captured the attention of Mets fans and earned himself a spot on the roster with...

Why Marlon Byrd Has The Chance For A Rebirth
Let’s face it: We all know that this Mets’ outfield is not ideal whatsoever. If this team is going to go anywhere above 4th place in the NL East, somebody in the outfield needs to step up and be a reliable, everyday player. Many people believe that Colin Cowgill is primed for a breakout season, and I agree with these claims to a certain extent. However, if there is anyone on...
Marlon Byrd starting to make his presence felt
If you don’t know about the Mets’ much maligned and scrutinized outfield, then you are no Mets’ fan or you fell off the face of the earth-or both.
In the quest to piece together a solid, yet unspectacular outfield, the Mets are getting good springs from Collin Cowgill and now as of late Marlon Byrd. After hitting a three-run home run against the Venezuelan national team yesterday...
Outfield alert: Mets sign Marlon Byrd
When your team has an outfield situation as desperate as the Mets’ is (Andrew Brown is going to compete for a starting job after having trouble staying on Colorado’s major league roster in 2012), any new is good news. Yesterday, that good news came in the form of 11-year veteran Marlon Byrd signing a Minor League contract.
#Mets have signed Marlon Byrd to a minor league contract...

So it's not positive...
