Relief Pitcher Depth Chart, 2017

None of this is exact science, but this is furthest of them all, because some of the likeliest replacements for relievers are starters from the level below. If Hansel Robles gets hurt, it's as much an opportunity for Seth Lugo as it is for Paul Sewald. Moreso, because Lugo has shown he can retire big leaguers and he's on the 40. In fact, none of the Las Vegas bullpen projected below are currently on the 40-man roster.

It's nonetheless a pretty solid department for the team, particularly where guys are pushing up from Columbia and St. Lucie toward Bingo. The bullpen had thinned a lot the last year or two, following multiple departures in trades for big leaguers, but things seem to be shoring up now.

Re: Relief Pitcher Depth Chart, 2017

So it appears that the one final roster spot still up for grabs is Lugo vs Montero, the 'Winner' gets a spot in the NYM bullpen (at least until Familia becomes eligible again) while the looser gets to "stretch
it out" in Vegas (there's a phrase with several meanings) with an eye towards being groomed for spot starting and/or injury replacement when the need arrives in Queens.

In either case the NYM pen will start the year with three LHPs: Blevins, Edgin and Smoker -- not a bad thing with so many NL East games early on: Freddie, Harper, Muffy, Yelich, etc. -- to back what will be
an all-RHP starting staff for at least the first month.

R - Reed
R - Salas
R - Robles
L - Blevins
L - Edgin
L - Smoker
and the right-handed TBD

Re: Relief Pitcher Depth Chart, 2017

I thought the news a day or two ago was that Montero had chomped down on a spot and it was confirmed by Terry and everything.

I'm happy to Edgin secure his spot, if only for now. He's been quite the digital whipping boy derided in online Metsville of late.
