Season-ending surgery has cut Dellin Betances’ chance at a 2021 comeback with the New York Mets short. After appearing in a single game for them earlier this year—the same case he had with the 2019 New York Yankees—Betances is done.
I remember back when Betances first signed with the Mets. It wasn’t so long ago that it could be easily forgotten. The deal became official on December 24, 2019, and was viewed by some as an early Christmas present.
