Logan Verrett, a former Baylor Bear, will take over in the Mets rotation now that Matt Harvey is injured. From Trey Greggory of the Waco Tribune-Herald:
The New York Mets found themselves short of one star pitcher when Matt Harvey’s season ended after he was diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome. But Harvey’s loss was former Baylor pitcher Logan Verrett’s gain. Verrett will get first crack at replacing Harvey in the starting lineup.
The Oklahoman’s Barry Tramel says the Big 12 will be seriously weakened if Baylor football declines:
That helps the Sooners and Cowboys in the short term.
