Mets fans, an all new episode is here!
This week Mike and I are joined once again by former Mets radio broadcaster Josh Lewin to recap the Mets unlikely series win against the Braves in Atlanta, Max Scherzer‘s impact on the mound and in the dugout, Francisco Lindor‘s stellar season so far, Sandy Alderson’s comments about the Mets need for a designated hitter, the upcoming All-Star game, Jacob deGrom‘s road back to Flushing, and more!
With deGrom seemingly close to his major league return, how will the Mets look to manage their long-awaited ace (who’s also going to opt-out at the end of this season?)
According to Lewin, If the two-time Cy Young award winner says he feels good down the stretch, then let him ride:
“It’s going to be very tough down the stretch not to just ride the heck out of Jake if he says that he feels good. But first things first, lets see how he actually performs although I think he’ll perform just fine…I guess I’m just curious to see what it looks like in mid to late August, I’m sure (deGrom) knows that the Mets will only expect him to throw about 80 pitches or 5 innings or whatever it is for a little while, but at some point he and the Mets will want him to turn it loose and it’ll be interesting to see come late August.”
