Blue Jays fans gave New York Mets slugger Jose Bautista a standing ovation before his first at bat as a visiting player since leaving Toronto at the end of last season.
The two-time home run champion took off his helmet and acknowledged both the crowd and the Blue Jays dugout as fans rose for a prolonged ovation. Bautista drew a five-pitch walk and scored when Asdrubal Cabrera followed with a home run. Before the game Al Davis Jersey , Bautista drew another ovation at the end of a video tribute featuring highlights of his 10 seasons with the Blue Jays, including back-to-back ALCS appearances in 2015 and 2016. The six-time All-Star exchanged warm embraces with several former Blue Jays teammates during batting practice and signed autographs for fans alongside New York’s first base dugout. Fans in right field rose to applaud Bautista as he took his position in the bottom of the first. Bautista played 12 games for Atlanta in May and joined the Mets on May 22. He’s batting .250 with three homers and 13 RBIs in 36 games with New York. Odell Beckham Jr. isn’t on the trade market. He isn’t untouchable, either. New York Giants owner John Mara on Sunday expressed his disappointment in the controversial star receiver. Speaking at the NFL meetings, Mara said he is not angry with Beckham, who recently was seen in a video in bed with a woman and what appeared to be white powder Noah Spence Jersey , though the timing of the video and its content is uncertain. ”It’s too often he allows himself to be put in bad situations and uses bad judgment,” Mara said, adding that the video ”wasn’t helpful. He knows what we expect of him and now it’s up to him. ”We certainly are not shopping him. Coming off 3-13 when we played as poorly as we did, I can’t say anyone is untouchable.” Beckham missed 12 games last year with a broken left ankle, so he was sidelined for most of New York’s awful season. He’s already made it clear he wants a new contract Tre'Davious White Jersey , and Mara admitted Beckham’s mercurial behavior – which also has brought problems on the field, including a one-game suspension in 2015 – could affect any talks. Beckham is entering the fifth and final year of his rookie deal and there has been strong speculation he will hold out during training camp. ”Contracts get done when they’re supposed to get done. We’ll just have to see what happens,” Mara said. He added that Beckham playing out the contract is ”a possibility.” The 2014 Offensive Rookie of the Year, Beckham has been New York’s best offensive weapon when healthy. In his first three seasons, he had 288 receptions for 4 Joshua Garnett Jersey ,122 yards and 35 touchdowns. His highlight-reel catches have been, well, a highlight of his short career. But so have incidents such as an on-field feud with then-Panthers cornerback Josh Norman for which Beckham was suspended a game in December 2015 for egregious fouls. Beckham is scheduled to make almost $8.5 million this season and has said he wants to be the highest-paid receiver in the NFL. For now, Pittsburgh’s All-Pro wideout Antonio Brown has the highest average yearly salary for the position, $17.5 million – more than double what Beckham makes. — Buffalo Bills Customized Jerseys |
