Mets' Amed Rosario: Extends Triple-A hitting streak to 16 games
Rosario went 2-for-4 with a walk, a home run, three runs scored and three RBI for Triple-A Las Vegas in Monday's win over El Paso.
He's now hit safely in 16 straight games, posting a .356/.390/.589 slash line over that stretch with three homers, three steals, 17 RBI and 14 runs. Rosario is certainly being aided by his hitter-friendly home park, but regardless of venue the 21-year-old shortstop's performance this season at the highest level of the minor leagues has still been outstanding. The Mets avoided the temptation to promote their top prospect when Asdrubal Cabrera was on the DL with a thumb injury, but it seems only a matter of time before Rosario makes his big-league debut, particularly if the team remains out of the playoff picture and begins to trade away veterans in the second half.
