BROOKLYN, NY - With Zach Lutz hitting .344 this season and Reese Havens making his pro debut on Monday, Mets eighth round pick Eric Campbell's fate with the Brooklyn Cyclones appeared up in the air. After going two for thee with a pair of RBI, a walk and run scored, the backup third baseman/designated hitter powered a 6-5 Cyclones win and answered any questions about his dependability. Above everything else however, he let his teammates know he wants to be in the lineup everyday. “I felt good at the plate tonight,” said Campbell. “I stuck with my approach and got good pitches to hit. Any chance I get to play, I'm going to take advantage of it.”

BROOKLYN, NY- If Mets first round pick Ike Davis was brought to Brooklyn for only one reason, it was so he could be a difference maker on offense. Going 1-5 with an RBI on Sunday against Hudson Valley on Sunday however, the recently signed first basemen isn't quite ready yet to be the impact player the team desperately needs. The rest of his teammates didn't help the cause much either though, amassing only two extra-base hits and committing two costly errors in a 6-4 loss. “We scored four runs today,” said Cyclones skipper Edgar Alfonzo of his team that ended up with 12 hits on the night. “I know this team is going to score runs. Again, we were one hit away from winning the game. We finished the game strong too, so I'm proud of them for that.”
