Mark Vientos revisited Steinbrenner Field two years after losing a likely Opening Day role when the Mets signed J.D. Martinez. Vientos led the Mets with five spring homers and was seen as a top internal DH candidate before Martinez’s late, affordable signing roughly 48 hours before the team traveled north. Vientos initially responded with a brief, somber comment. Now 26, Vientos started at first base against the Yankees, is expected to split time at first and DH in spring, and is out of minor-league options, effectively securing a big-league roster spot.
