Neil Walker moves up to second in the Mets' batting order
New York Mets second baseman Neil Walker will bat second in Monday's home game against the Chicago Cubs.
What It Means:
The Mets have shaken up most of their lineup for this one, and this will be only the second time all season that Walker has batted as high as second in the order.
The switch-hitting Walker has a .353 wOBA on a 33.3% hard-hit rate against right-handed pitching this season, putting him in a good spot tonight against Cubs' righty John Lackey.
