The Curious Case of Vidal Bruján: Why He’s a Met and Luisangel Acuña Isn’t

For a guy whose primary claim to fame is well, hitting .265 with 26 homers last year and being really good at remembering how to swing a bat. Polanco, 32, will be in New York reportedly to play first base and DH. And yes, I said first base. Hold on to that thought—we’ll circle back. Let’s start with the stats.
