There is only two weeks left before pitchers and catchers report to Port St. Lucie to begin the new Mets season. Every player has been working diligently to get ready to compete during the long grind this year, as everyone in the organization looks to secure the coveted World Series trophy.

And that includes Mets new GM Brodie Van Wagenen.

Van Wagenen showed off his sweet swing with a nice blue and orange bat, as he got his own reps in before spring training. Just as he has all offseason, Van Wagenen displayed his confidence by challenging the other MLB GMs to a Home Run Derby.

If any GMs want to step up to the plate, they must keep in mind that Van Wagenen was a Division I player back in his college days with the Stanford Cardinal. And this highlight reel shows that he can still make it pop off the bat -- even in business attire.

So, as the Mets continue their training in these last few days leading up to spring training, will any GM accept the challenge to face Van Wagenen?
