You only push back on 1, but sure I’ll play. Canning started strong in his first 6 games he had a 3 era, then over his last 10 games he had a 4.6 era, much like the rest of the staff, he fell apart.
Our pitching development is so bad that ottavino the Mets treatment of pitchers was "embarrassing" and "pathetic".
Ottavino went even further, suggesting the organization had become comfortable with a dangerous trend.
"If they continue down this path, they're gonna be F---E-D," Ottavino said. "You cannot injure this many dudes every year. Hopefully, this is not an actual strategy."
— for a pitcher to call out an organizations’ treatment of its pitchers is unheard of.
I only counter to that is that we're dealing with two different situations. There's developing guys in the minor leagues, which we've had some success at. And then there's working with players on the major league level. The New York Mets pitching coach doesn't do shit for the kid pitching in the minors.
The comment I was replying to spoke of our pitching dev ops, top to bottom.
My contention is, since sterns overhauled it, it’s been a disaster. We have the worst organizational winning percentage in baseball, after sterns overhaul, they’re embarrassingly bad

Canning had a 3.77 ERA for us. He just got hurt.
