Although the outcome of the final eight games of the regular season will still yet determine the winner of the NL East, the Mets have punched their ticket to the postseason for the first time since 2016. With the roster mostly healthy heading into October (I am knocking on every piece of wood in my apartment as I type these words), there will be a few decisions to be made at the periphery, but the postseason roster is mostly set. However, arguably the biggest decision facing the Mets as they head into the playoffs isn’t one regarding cutting a player or keeping him on the roster, but which of Taijuan Walker or Carlos Carrasco will serve as the team’s fourth starter in the postseason rotation.
