The New York Mets lone offseason moves this offseason have been additions to their starting rotation. Veteran arms Michael Wacha and Rick Porcello account as those two additions.
While many around Flushing were happy with the two signings, one current Met isn’t too thrilled.
Seth Lugo, who’s been pitching out of the bullpen for the Mets the last two seasons, has been outspoken about his desire to return to the starting rotation.
Thus, with Wacha and Porcello signed to add to a staff that already includes Jacob deGrom, Noah Syndergaard and Steven Matz, Lugo wasn’t all too happy to learn he might be the odd man out.
