According to Joel Sherman of the New York Post, the New York Mets are considering an unconventional starting rotation. The idea is that Jacob deGrom, Noah Syndergaard, Marcus Stroman, and Rick Porcello will all be guaranteed rotation spots but beyond that, it’s up in the air.
Steven Matz and Michael Wacha have been in a perceived battle for the fifth spot in the rotation, but there may not even be a fifth spot. Sherman reports that the Mets may just play to matchups every fifth day.
