Mes Insider: Steven Matz could help staff ease innings
Steven Matz (r.) could help the Mets' young arms curb their innings by coming back in September and giving the team a six-man rotation.While they move into the stretch run of the season, fighting for the National League East crown, the Mets have to “reassess” the rotation’s innings limits, according to Sandy Alderson.
Alderson said the team is reviewing the innings limits “at the margins” and that they have a few strategies available to manage workloads .
“We still understand that we’ve got to keep a close eye on it and the overall volume (of innings) of at least a couple of guys in the rotation,” Alderson said.
