JEWISH BASEBALL NEWS — The New York Mets sent Ike Davis to their AAA squad, despite a phenomenal Spring Training that saw the 23-year-old first baseman hit .480 with three home runs and 10 RBIs in just 25 at-bats.
From the New York Post:
“We brought [Davis] into the room and let him know how impressed we were with him this spring training,” GM Omar Minaya said. “He showed us a lot of good things. He needs to go to Triple-A and get at-bats.”
Davis, the 18th pick overall in the June 2008 amateur draft, was promoted to AA ball midway through the 2009 season. He hit .309 for the Binghamton Mets (AA), with 13 home runs and 43 RBIs in 207 at-bats.
