Mets catcher Travis d'Arnaud said he's been pressing at the plate this year, according to the New York Daily News.
d'Arnaud has struggled, hitting just .152 in 66 at-bats. "I am pressing," d’Arnaud said. "I know I am pressing. I am trying to just relax and I am getting more comfortable." Despite the struggles, Mets hitting coach Dave Hudgens said he still feels good about the rookie's swing.
"He’s got a great swing,"Hudgens said. "What he does before, he knows the right sequence, he knows the right movement. Once he gets that down, you’ll see it minimize once he gets comfortable." d'Arnaud will continue to get playing time as he figures out how to hit in the majors.
