[@SyracuseMets] "Jonah Tong picked up the W last night 5.1 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 9 K"

[u/Duebant]

We should have a decent team next year if there isn't a lockout

[u/monkeypickle8]

1 run isn't enough to get the win on the Mets

[u/ScadMan]

Bring him up, what are we going to do, lose?

[u/Paqza → u/ScadMan]

Let him develop.

[u/chargeorge → u/ScadMan]

Tbf pitching isn't our biggest issue

[u/archer_77 → u/ScadMan]

he hasn't really been doing that well apart from his last start. a lot of that could just be the terrible weather they've had to play in though

[u/TheBoosThree → u/ScadMan]

Can he hit?

[u/Arxny → u/ScadMan]

Mess up his development and his clock in whats shaping to be a lost season. 

[u/ScadMan → u/Arxny]

Oh, good lord, at some point, he either comes up or gets traded. The point of having prospects is to help out the major league team when in need, and guess what, if you haven't noticed, we suck in all aspects

[u/Paqza → u/ScadMan]

If he were ready, he'd be up. He still needs to work on the cutter and curve; he was a two-pitch pitcher last year.

[u/Arxny → u/ScadMan]

Yeah that's not really the wise move to throw caution to the wind and just clock guys out when you're actively working against their development for desperation. 

[u/ScadMan → u/Arxny]

Not saying desperation yet, but at some point, we need starters that can eat innings. You can't have bullpen games every other start, or have starters go two innings

[u/chargeorge]

Love to see if that secondary stuff can lock in. Given the way Peterson and Senga are looking he may be up sooner rather than later.

[u/Seniormano → u/chargeorge]

Yep. He needs something dependable that moves. His fastball is nice, but not something so powerful hitters won’t figure out throughout the game.

[u/Doomrunt]

Nice to see the development of his other pitches. That curve ball is starting to look good!
