Mets manager Terry Collins said Sunday he has a vision for what it will take for shortstop Ruben Tejada to be recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas. Tejada was optioned to the minors Saturday after being taken off the 15-day disabled list.
"I want to hear about quality at-bats," Collins said, per ESPN. "I want to hear about the fact his first-step quickness is back. He's not Jose Reyes, but this guy had great instincts to the ball. I want to make sure I hear that's back, that he's getting to baseballs, he's getting the good read off the bat -- in a tough place to play. So if he's getting it there, I know he's getting ready."
