De Aza got the start in left field against the Yankees, and hit a two-run home run off starting pitcher Masahiro Tanaka en route to a 7-1 Mets win.
EDGE Analysis
De Aza got the start in center field with Yoenis Cespedes getting the night off with a sore quad, and capitalized on his opportunity. De Aza hit his third home run of the season, although it was his second in as many days after hitting one against the Yankees on Monday as well. De Aza has played poorly for most of the season, hitting just .211 with nine RBI in 133 at-bats. Despite the recent power surge, De Aza's value will likely remain capped by limited playing time, especially with the arrival of outfielder Jay Bruce via trade.
