Minors MVP of the Day – I wanted to give this award to Thor, but Eudor Garcia's 4-hit, 2-double game is too good to ignore. What a great start to his 2015! I'm excited to see if his presence gives a boost to the lineup.

Minors Cy of the Day – THOR! The Mets need to get this man into the rotation for his next start, and on the bench for some lefty pop! :P
