Polanco, returning from injuries, is hitting just.114 in 15 games and has been hitless in his last eight appearances. Green expressed hope that a change in environment might help Polanco regain his timing and confidence at the plate. Additionally, Green commented on the trade of pitcher Freddy Peralta to the Rays, acknowledging the disappointment surrounding Peralta's performance during his time with the Mets, where he posted a 4.99 ERA in 22 starts.
