Top Mets attend as fitness camp resumes

NEW YORK -- With the calendar having flipped to January, the Mets' offseason strength and conditioning camp is back in session in Port St. Lucie, Florida, as of Monday.

Several well-known Mets are among those in attendance, including David Wright, Jonathon Niese, Lucas Duda, Travis d'Arnaud, Bobby Parnell, Jeurys Familia and Josh Edgin.

Last winter, the Mets had players go to Michigan for the camp, which works on nutrition as well as strength, speed and agility.

This winter, the Mets have hired that camp's operator, Mike Barwis, to lead the organization's strength and conditioning efforts and have relocated the camp to the organization's spring-training complex.

Wright, Niese, Duda and Parnell now all own homes in the Port St. Lucie area.
