While the New York Mets have made more big splashes than anyone expected they would going into this offseason, one position I feel that they could still make a move to help improve would be at starting pitcher.
As of now, we’re about a month away from the start of the season and the plan as of now is to go into the season with a starting rotation consisting of returning pitchers from last season.
Barring injury, Jacob deGrom, Noah Syndergaard, Zack Wheeler, and Steven Matz are all locks to begin the season in the starting rotation, and veteran lefty Jason Vargas is the most likely to be the fifth starter.
