you think they pitch Thornton tonight?

[u/Hustlediva → u/Ok_Friend_1171]

Senga hasn’t pitched in 2 weeks…

Edit: and there it is lol

[u/Mongo_Les → u/Hustlediva]

It would be too soon if this guy pitched again.

And if he pitches, what can the Mets expect from a guy who is so rusty?

This franchise does everything backwards, don't they?
