So, what's the rotation order?

Benjamin Grimm Mar 27 2019 12:59 PM

Has the order of the starting rotation been announced yet? I'm thinking it's deGrom/Syndergaard/Wheeler/Matz/Vargas unless they don't like having their two lefties go back-to-back. Then maybe Wheeler goes fourth and either Matz or Vargas goes third? It looks like the only starter that's been announced so far is deGrom on Thursday. On MLB.com, both Saturday's and Sunday's starters are TBD.

I think they need to decide based on which order combo provides the opportunity for the best mnemonic. Don't Mess With Satan's Viagra Dark Storms Vex My Wildebeest Democrats Must Veto Wall Spending I mean, how else are we supposed to remember?

Well it looks like G-Fafif started the IGT already. And since he stays on until they win, that should take us until about April 23. After that, maybe go by seniority? Edgy, KC, then the JCL/FK brothers. That should be enough to get us to the All-Star break.

Arguably the second guy is the Home Opener starter, so I'd guess Syndergaard.

G-FaFiF totally hijacked it from Lunchie, though, who had squatted it in the old forum. I don't know if that's good thread form or not. There really are no rules for forum turnover etiquette.

I started the IGT for Game 162 last season, a Mets win, and proceeded from there.

Anyway, let's get a win with this one.
