Which lefty has had a better career with the New York Mets thus far; the former Met Jon Niese or southpaw currently with the club, Steven Matz?
Jon Niese isn’t often thought of as one of the better New York Mets starting pitchers of the last decade. It’s a fair thought to have. He wasn’t spectacular at all.
On the current Mets, there’s a new version of Niese.
