| Info for David Wright from the Baseball-Reference.com Bullpen |
| David Wright play his first complete season at the major league level after a successful and short minor league career in the New York Mets system. To say the least, it was a huge success. In 575 AB, David compiled 102 RBIs, 99 runs scored, while hitting for a .911 OPS. Add on his 17 stolen bases, and David had himself a monster first full campaign. If his season had one dark spot, it would have to be defensively. At third base, David was spectacular at times, but also inconsistent at others. While he has been an above average fielder his entire career, he seemed to take some steps backwards in 2005 to the tune of 24 errors. However, any shortcomings David may have had defensively that year were more than made up for by his bat, becoming the first Met since Mike Piazza in 2000 to hit for 100+ RBIs. |
