MFY-tainted big dude coming out of the bullpen. What's your expectation?

Re: 2020 Vision: Dellin Betances

anyone clock his velocity yet in spring? I need that info. In his one outing last season it was down but it was his one outing last season.



if he's throwing as hard, I expect similar results to his norm.

He'll lead the team in the rate of K/9 ... and also BB/9

He'll also be tall.

Retains his stuff but not his command. every appearance is a nail biter, but he will be a decent seventh inning pitcher in 67 games.

1.24 WHIP, 3,36 ERA.

breaks his nose when punched by Familia for trying to steal his girl at a strip joint, after the 3rd game of the season. While rehabbing, he gets hit by a car, breaking his arm in 13 places. He retires to study tropical birds in the Amazon.

That's exactly what I was going to predict!

IL'd after second appearance in April and never returns to the Mets again.

The best 20 innings we've ever gotten from a relief pitcher.

Hoping he's motivated by a second chance in NYC, strikes out the side vs. the MFYs, at MFY stadium, but the highlights are few beyond that.



Has an issue off the field with Gsellman during a July road trip, but we don't get the real details till dicomo leaves the beat for a Job with the Athletic after the season. Ceetar accuses him of making it up.

Ya takes yer Chances with Dellin Betances. Will be good but not Yankee good. Numbers kinda irrelevant for a middle reliever.



Gets into a taxi in Miami on a late night in August......and arrives safely.
