Will the Mets feel more pressure to extend Marcus Stroman because of shortened season?

The New York Mets have more than a handful of players set to reach free agency next winter. One of the more notable names is Marcus Stroman.

Acquired last summer in a trade with the Toronto Blue Jays, Stroman was viewed as an early addition to the rotation. He helped the club plenty in late 2019 and is currently in line to be the team’s number two starter with Noah Syndergaard sidelined.

Unfortunately, the beginning of the 2020 season is still in limbo. With the only guarantee being that the Mets will probably get fewer starts out of Stroman than previously believed, there may be a little more pressure to extend him than there was before.
