Mike's Mets Player Review Series: Carlos Carrasco

The New York Mets' season is over. This series looks at the players from A to W. It will look at their season statistics, stories and what role they will have next season. Today we look back at starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco.

Carlos Carrasco was a dependable starter for the New York Mets. He made 29 starts and tied Chris Bassitt for team lead in wins with 15. Carraresco struggled against the Houston Astros and Atlanta Braves. The Mets left him off their Wild Card roster and promoted Taijuan Walker.

Carlos Carrasco is a potential free agent. The Mets hold a $14 million club option for Carraresco for 2023.

Carrasco's oblique injury probably cost him the 18 innings he needed to vest the 2023 option. The team is on the hook for a $3 million buyout if they decline it. If they do not decline the option, they will have to replace Carrasco with someone else.

The Jays Opt for Certainty With Chris Bassitt

The Jays Opt for Certainty With Chris Bassitt

When I read today's ZiPS projections for the Blue Jays, I was struck by one clear weakness: starting pitching depth. The team boasts an impressive lineup across the board, with Lourdes Gurriel Jr. the closest thing to a weak spot. Toronto also has two borderline aces in Alek Manoah and Kevin Gausman. That sounds great, but the fourth and fifth…
