Hairston is the Mets' backup utility outfielder. Hairston can play all three outfield positions, although I wouldn't exactly call him a defensive replacement. I understand that with Duda starting in RF, the Mets will probably use a defensive replacement...

Ronny Cedeno #13 SS New York Mets 2011 STATS GM 128 HR 2 RBI 32 R 43 OBP .297 AVG .249 BENCH: The Mets re-signed Scott Hairston as the righty-hitting backup outfielder. He finished last season on the DL with a left oblique strain. The Mets let...

Jose Reyes left last month for a $106 million, six-year deal with the Miami Marlins. New York added relievers Frank Francisco and Jon Rauch and acquired outfielder Andres Torres and pitcher Ramon Ramirez from San Francisco for center fielder Angel Pagan.
