The Mets are about to embark on a crucial offseason with lots of important roster decisions that need to be made. That’s mostly because New York has several impact players from its 101-win squad about to hit the open market. The pitching staff — especially the starting rotation — looks bare right now.
Max Scherzer is the only veteran who is currently guaranteed to return. Will Jacob deGrom and/or Chris Bassitt — the other two of the Mets’ top three starting hurlers — join him at Citi Field?
Mark Canha thinks they’ll *both* be back, which would be huge for manager Buck Showalter.
