Not only has Carlos Carrasco been the Mets’ weakest pitching link two weeks into the regular season, but both of his starts have been non-competitive.
As the Mets prepare for the possibility that Justin Verlander will return to the rotation before the end of this month, the pressure could be on Carrasco to find the answer, and soon.
Across the board, the numbers are troublesome, starting with an average fastball velocity that has dropped from 93.2 mph last year to 91.2 mph this season. Meanwhile, the Mets have received respectable production from David Peterson and Tylor Megill in the rotation.Peterson won his job in spring training after Jose Quintana underwent rib surgery that will keep him sidelined at least until July. And Megill stepped in after Verlander was diagnosed with a strained teres major muscle that has prevented him from debuting with the Mets.In his three starts, Peterson has twice kept the Mets in games.
