Unless this shortened season never happens (because now apparently some players & staffers from a handful of teams have tested positive for covid), I'd go with Yo against lefties, Dom against righties...and slot JD wherever & whenever.

LGM!

Agreed, I think JD has a lot of value in the field.

No fans? Mets to use cutouts in Citi Field stands


NEW YORK -- When the Mets open their regular-season schedule against the Braves on July 24, they won’t be playing in front of fans. But that doesn’t mean Citi Field will be empty.

The team plans to install cardboard cutouts around the stadium featuring likenesses of fans or other customized designs. On Wednesday, the Mets sent out an offer allowing those who renew their season tickets for 2021 to have a personalized cutout of themselves placed in a Citi Field seat during games. Each renewed full- or partial-season ticket is good for one cutout, up to a maximum of six.
The Mets will assign placement of the cutouts around the park, with no guarantee that specific seat requests will be honored.

The Mets hinted at a future option for non-season ticketholders to purchase cutouts. But a team official said the club was not prepared to release information about that potential portion of the program.

Cutouts have become a way for sports leagues without fans to add color and atmosphere to their stadiums. Notably, the KBO in Korea has filled the first few rows of stadiums with cardboard cutouts or stuffed animals. Major League teams, including the Giants and Brewers, have announced similar programs.
