Disagree The Mets upgraded the catcher - they signed a Ramos clone. Also - as consituted the pitching staff needs a 5th starter. Doesnt have to be Bauer but going with Matz is a loss every 5 days. This is espcialley true when they have Diaz and Familia coming out of the bullpen.
Thanks for weighing in, Steve. If the Mets invested significantly in bullpen help (eg, Hendriks, and/or 2 quality relievers), how would you feel about making Lugo the 5th starter until Noah returns?
Hi Blake thanks for responding - i'm not sure - if it means Diaz and Familia are gone i guess that would be ok. To me if you package those guys and maybe even Matz for draft picks and single or double A personnel - then beef up the bullpen - Lugo is the 5th option. However, Stroman probaly is 5th with Lugo as your 4th guy.
