Flores got the start at third base in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals, going 2-for-2 with a walk, a double and six RBI, four of which came on a grand slam off Adam Wainwright.

The Mets crossed the plate 14 times in the first three innings against Wainwright and top Cards prospect Luke Weaver, and Flores took full advantage of their struggles. He's ticketed for a bench role this season, but the Mets will look to get the 25-year-old into the lineup as often as possible against left-handed pitching, and in fantasy leagues with more liberal rules for qualifying at different positions, Flores could again wind up with eligibility at all four infield spots.
