Didn't really make much sense to me why the Mets willingly chose to start Wilmer Font yesterday (as he's their fill in guy they traded for since they prefer him over Keuchel because you know why).

But the more manageable issue than he just sucks and the Mets cheaped out on trying to win this year is that they started him (on 2 extra days rest), when they could've just started Wheeler on normal rest yesterday, and deGrom on normal rest today, then Font on Friday- which , since when we aren't 100% sure when Matz will be back, gives them some extra room to work to minimize the amount of starts he makes... because every start he makes is literally an automatic loss.

I dunno. It really sucks the Mets are really going with this guy instead of actually paying for someone even just halfway decent while mind you they have started a 20-game stretch with no off days, with literally only 3 pitchers capable of starting a game (degrom, wheeler, syndergaard), since Vargas/Matz are sidelined... there is no one in the minors that can start. I'm sure they'll force someone in there when they have to (like they did with Font) but come on.
