A chorus of “Auld Lang Syne” might have been applicable for Zack Wheeler as he departed the mound Sunday, but this probably isn’t how he would want to remember Citi Field.
With the right-hander serving as potential trade bait and the Mets set to open the second half on the road, Wheeler — if all goes according to manager Mickey Callaway’s rotation alignment — wouldn’t pitch in Citi again until July 28, only three days before the trade deadline. Will he still be with the Mets for that start?
