Fried and Lopez were going 2 games. Now it’s 1-2 instead of 2-3.
It doesn’t matter because we can’t hit or close games. The rotation is the only thing that gives us a punchers chance and yea that chance has been significantly diminished.
The goal should be to win a WC series, not just make it. If there were analytics for this, and you assume the Mets sit as many impact players as possible, I feel very confident the numbers would say pitching someone other than Sale gives you significantly higher odds of taking the WC series.They'll win tonight...the Cy Young winner is going against a AAA/AAAA team, but they torpedoed any chance they had to win a playoff series.
