Jerry Manuel confirmed to reporters that Pat Misch will be pulled from the rotation for the rest of the season, likely to be replaced by Tobi Stoner or Lance Broadway, reports Adam Rubin.
I’m torn. On one hand, why not let Misch keep pitching for the rest of the year? What’s two or three more starts and possible losses?
On the other hand, I do want to see what the Mets have in Stoner and Broadway. Doesn’t look like either can be an impact player for next year, but they are under the team’s control and could help a few years down the road. Let’s get a preview now.
And here’s the lineup they will run out at Citi Field tonight…
- Angel Pagan – LF
- Luis Castillo – 2B
- David Wright – 3B
- Carlos Beltran – CF
- Daniel Murphy – 1B
- Jeff Francoeur – RF
- Brian Schneider – C
- Anderson Hernandez – SS
- Nelson Figueroa - RHP
