Steven Matz will be returning to the New York Mets in 2021
According to Tim Healey of Newsday, the 29-year-old southpaw will earn $5.2 million next season — non-guaranteed and complete with a rip-cord clause allowing the Mets to release him by March 17 with minimal money owed ($832,000, to be exact). He will presumably compete for a spot at the back-end of the rotation.
A second-round pick (72nd overall) of the Mets in 2009 out of Ward Melville High School, Matz has experienced pretty much all the peaks and valleys playing in Queens has to offer. Well, almost all the peaks.
With an assist from octogenarian pitching coach and longtime Mets organizational fixturePhil Regan, Matz enjoyed arguably the finest stretch of his career in 2019, pitching to a 3.52 ERA in the second half. This also included a stretch from August 7 through September 11 where he pitched to a 1.94 ERA (42 K, 13 BB) over 41.2 IP.
The COVID-shortened 2020 season was not as kind to Matz, as evidenced by his removal from the rotation and an eyesore of a stat line (9.68 ERA, 1.70 WHIP over 30.2 innings; nine games, six starts). Some wondered aloud if he’d even be tendered a contract this season.
With capable rotational arms currently at a shortage on the Mets’ roster and a minimal-risk opportunity to bet on Matz bouncing back in 2021, this seems like a no-brainer.
Whether Matz can regain his form is yet to be determined, but the added depth is always nice.

Allegedly the mets...thus the post in this thread
Yeah I don't know how important strength of schedule is in MLB. The Mets are more than capable of fucking up a slim lead in September.

Arizona could be spoilers for someone with all those rookies they brought up. They got 3 or 4 guys that can hit.

they're going to be an interesting team next year. Carroll just hit his first MLB homer
