New York Mets General Manager Brodie Van Wagenen announced after the game that outfielder Yoenis Cespedes has decided to opt-out of the 2020 season due to COVID-19 concerns. Cespedes didn't show up at Truist Ballpark in Atlanta for the game today and the team was not aware of where he was. It turned out Cespedes packed up his bags and left the team hotel without informing anyone but it was not clear where he was Sunday afternoon. He missed most of the 2018 and 2019 seasons due to injury and was hitting only .161 with two homers and 4 RBI's in eight games at DH this year. Now that Cespedes is gone, Dom Smith and J.D. Davis will get time at LF and DH and bring some youth and energy to the starting lineup.
