Jose Iglesias delivers in clutch spot for Mets as Francisco Lindor’s replacement
NY Post
When the season began, Jose Iglesias was an afterthought, a veteran toiling in the minor leagues.
Now, he’s a critical piece to the Mets, made even more important with Francisco Lindor’s back injury that is likely to keep him out of this week’s series against the Nationals, if not longer.
Monday night was a first: Iglesias was starting at shortstop for the Mets.
This wasn’t new: He added to his clutch year by driving in the game-tying run in the eighth inning of his team’s 2-1, 10-inning victory, adding to his already impressive numbers with runners in scoring position (now 18-for-47 with 22 of his 25 RBIs.)
“The only thing that changes is my playing time. I have no room for rest. I’ve got to go up there with everything I’ve got,” said Iglesias, who is now riding a 10-game hitting streak. “And that’s what I’m here for. I’m just glad to do that. Like I said, I’m just trying to do my job and contribute to help this team all the way through.”
Before the game, manager Carlos Mendoza explained the decision to play Iglesias at shortstop.
