One of the newest members of the New York Mets organization, Bobby Wahl, should have plenty of chances to pitch for the big league team this season. The 26-year-old pitched in seven games for the Oakland Athletics last season with mediocre results.
This year, the Mets must see what he can do for them. It’s time he sinks or swims in Flushing.
Personally, I don’t have high expectations for Wahl. Yes, he throws hard. And sure, he’s striking out AAA batters like crazy. Until he does it at the MLB level, I’m going to have my doubts.
