Joey Lucchesi could prove useful for the New York Mets.

The Wire Troll: Joey Lucchesi May Get a Look in Mets Rotation

If you’re desperate at the always tough to fill catcher slot, Knapp has managed three hits and four walks over the last three games, but he’s shown almost no extra-base sock so far this season. For what it’s worth, he’s seeing fewer split-finger fastballs this year after having a bit of success against the pitch last year.

As discussed in our intro, Limet is hurt again, and Weathers made a strong claim to take advantage by limiting the powerful Dodgers to a single hit over 5 2/3 frames on Thursday. With shutout ball in back-to-back starts, Weathers is suddenly in the early stages of a fantastic rookie season. He had appeared out of the bullpen three times to begin the season, but if he can secure a rotation slot, he could very quickly become a must-own asset. Weathers is inducing plenty of ground balls early on, and that’s a promising trend.
