I doubt it. We will need reinforcements. The guy starting for the Braves tomorrow would have been perfect.As good as Thor looked yesterday, I'm already wincing every time I open my twitter feed. Matz and Lugo hurting. Wheeler is a huge question mark. Can Thor, DeGrom and Harvey all stay healthy and be enough to win the division?
Mike you are wrong. You pitch until you cannot. Bartolo pitches. Wheeler goes on DL. Lugo plays inAs much as I wanted him back, the Mets did the right thing in letting Bartolo go. He wants to start bc he's 10 wins away from tying Juan Marichel's record and the Mets couldn't promise that. Plus he's about to be 44, age will catch up at some point.
That being said, depth is important and if someone goes down (beyond Matz and Lugo) I could see them swinging a small trade to bring him back for the stretch run.
At least they are spending more and spending smarter than they have historically.Cheapo Mets make that up paying young guns 5-600 K while they can.
Solid win. Lots to like about tonight.
I think we just saw why he's not a great answer there.Why isn't Flores an option at 3B?
His rag arm will be a lot easier to accept if he can deliver consistently at the plate.d'Arnaud starting to heat up. If he can produce from the 8 spot this is a potent lineup and scary sight for an opposing pitcher.
Where's all the Bruce haters at?
