Sad News For New York Mets: He will not Return…

New York Mets Announce Paul Blackburn Won’t Return This Season.

Prior to Game 2 of the NL Wild Card series, the Mets announced that starting pitcher Paul Blackburn is done for the season.

The New York Mets won’t be getting a key depth piece back in the postseason after all.

 

 

The good news is that righty Tylor Megill has stepped up since reentering the rotation to take Blackburn’s spot. Since being recalled on August 30, Megill has posted a 2.32 ERA in 31 innings (six starts).

The Mets suffered a crushing 5-3 loss in Game 2 to the Brewers on Wednesday, where they saw a late lead slip away. As a result, Thursday’s Game 3 contest is a must-win in which the Mets can advance with a victory or go home.
