"Kirk Nieuwenheis to the Angels: Mets trade outfielder to LA"
[I saw his first at-bat in the 7th inning last night v Tigers. He walked.]
"...Nieuwenhuis, 27, has hit .079 in 40 plate appearances,
mostly off the bench, for the Mets in 2015. The
outfielder hit .259 last year, with a .346 on-base
percentage and 18 extra-base hits in 130 plate
appearances..."
