Frankie Montas’ season-ending injury and potential end to his New York Mets tenure caught us all off-guard. We figured he probably wasn’t feeling his best based on the results. The team’s lack of usage of him on Friday was the first hint that maybe something wasn’t right.
As a result of losing Montas, the Mets have new roster moves to consider. Huascar Brazoban replaced him on the roster as their new long man. Far bolder would be the promotion of another youngster to follow in the footsteps of Nolan McLean.
Brandon Sproat is the obvious player to promote.
