The Lugo Option?

Edgy MD Aug 11 2020 08:01 PM

Seemingly, the flammability of the Mets bullpen has abated a bit, and the need in the rotation certainly appears to be greater than the relief corp, which certainly has a lot of redundancy, even if they aren't quite firing on all cylinders. So, considering it's a kooky season with only a short time to go, if there's ever going to be a time to give Lugo his wish of one more chance at the rotation, why not now?

I'd rather have Lugo as one of the very best relievers around. Seth's history with the partially torn ligament is enough for me not to change the role he performs so well

As much as I agree that the rotation is the bigger mess right now, I'm with ashie on this. I'd say re-recall Franklyn Kilome and milk the ten relievers for all they're worth.

The Lugo Option wasn't one of Robert Ludlum's better novels.

I think it was one of the ones that were written after he was dead.

Probably. Being dead would definitely be a drag on the writing quality.

Not for Ludlum, I'll wager.
