Cedeno powers Mets to win: Mets shortstop Ronny Cedeno was in the starting lineup on Thursday against the Reds, and he provided the team with a big boost, driving in three runs on his first home run of the season, while going 2 for 5 in the Mets 9-4 victory. He scored one run in the game and also struck out once. (Updated 05/17/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
The Mets have said that Cedeno is going to see regular playing time with Ruben Tejada on the disabled list, however he is going to need to start hitting better to make it worth it for them. Thursday was a start, however he is still hitting just .219 on the season, so Cedeno should be avoided in all but the deepest of NL-only leagues. (Updated 05/17/2012).
