Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 4641555, member: 27"] Assuming Max is actually going to be ready to pitch Wednesday, I agree. Clearly Escobar is well respected and he still has value. He can play a couple of positions and is a switch hitter. By all accounts he is great in the clubhouse and you have to applause how he is handling this situation (at least so far). That said, the Mets are struggling to get make ends meet with 13 pitchers on staff. I don’t think they can run with only 12 pitchers for long. Our starting pitchers just aren’t pitching enough innings to allow this. A position player needs to go to make room for Baty. The candidates are Locastro, Pham. Vogelbach and Escobar. I think it will probably be Lacastro. [/QUOTE]
