Why pen?

Whatever his ability turns out to be. I love his name. 😅

How did he only have 71.2 innings in twelve starts and three relief appearances, but pitched into the seventh inning twice? His 4.77 BB/9 is very telling, it so is his 11.43 K/9. Probably a wild thing type that the Mets hope to harness. Nice gamble.
