If you paid attention to New York Mets pitcher Zack Wheeler this season, you may have noticed a much different man on the mound every fifth day. Wheeler has been a tremendous arm in the Mets rotation for a large chunk of the season. His ability to stay healthy has surely helped, but does credit need to go elsewhere, too?
Specifically, I’m referring to the coaching staff made up of alleged pitching gurus Mickey Callaway and Dave Eiland. Each joined the Mets with a hope that they could help turn the pitching staff around.
