NFT: Mets news: Wheeler done for season

pjcas18 : 9/19/2018 3:05 pm
just reached an innings limit it sounds like

unless there are other details I missed.

Assuming he's healthy just reached an innings limit I think this is a good decision.

have confirmed not injury related. Nice bounce back season from Wheeler.
The absolute right move

Good to see the Mets make the logical move. Far from a given with this organization.
great season - new GM has a big decision to make

12-7, 3.3 ERA, 3.2 FIP, 179k, 182 innings all adding up to 4+ fwar age 28 season (12th most valuable starter in all MLB this year). Need to resign him or trade him, can't risk losing that asset after next year for basically nothing.
2 starts too late

I’m glad to hear it’s not injury related. He definitely turned his season around, good for him!!
Met him at my friend’s daughter’s wedding, he is a very good friend of the groom. They pitched together throughout the Mets’ organization. Nice young man!! All the best!

make him an extension offer this off-season. Either they sign him or it'll be a topic all season and/or he walks. Can't let that happen.
Matt Harvey

Good to see them not push Wheels like they did Harvey in 2015. Though I think Z is right that this should have happened two starts ago.

And what a shame that we never got to see the five aces together. Imagine a rotation in which Thor is arguably the #4 starter
