I was listening to an interview Backman did during the off season when he announced he was going to be the Bisons manager this year and one of the kids he was excited about was Edgin. It’s nice to see the kid show why Backman was excited about him.
Could he be a future closer candidate?
I really wish they could ditch FFF and bring back Rauch to do a co-closer situation with Edgin.
What a shame that Mets offense couldn’t even manufacture runs to help their best pitcher at least accomplish a difficult achievement in winning the Cy Young.
Really, this offense has just gone to sleep, can’t manufacture runs and Ike’s lack of power at Citi vs the road is incredible.
