Frankie Montas gives Mets' banged-up rotation a lift
Share and Follow

Renovations may be imminent for the Mets’ staff as Frankie Montas stepped up on Saturday, with Kodai Senga and Sean Manaea expected to make a comeback in Cincinnati next weekend. The long-awaited dream rotation might finally materialize in the next few weeks, marking a significant shift from the past era of temporary fixes.

Baseball life has taken a turn for the better on the Queens side of the Whitestone after a second consecutive bludgeoning of the boys from The Bronx, this time 12-6 on Saturday that represented the Mets’ fourth straight victory after dropping 13 of the preceding 16 games.

Now, with opener Chris Devenski scheduled to take the ball for Sunday’s Subway Series finale before Senga and Manaea are in line for minor league rehab assignments this week, the Mets may not be all that far away from presenting their preferred Senga-Manaea-Montas-Clay Holmes-David Peterson rotation for the very first time.

Before this six-homer barrage — three from either side, two off the bat of Pete Alonso — got underway, manager Carlos Mendoza was asked to name his starting pitcher for the series finale even as his team was still facing exigent circumstances on the mound.
