Frankie Montas's role as a starter for the New York Mets is under scrutiny following a difficult outing against the Milwaukee Brewers. Manager Carlos Mendoza has not confirmed if Montas will pitch against the Seattle Mariners next. His recent performance included three innings pitched with three runs allowed, maintaining a high ERA of 6.38. The Mets face challenges with their starting rotation, lacking a healthy pitcher to complete six innings since mid-June, complicating the decision on Montas's future in the rotation and potentially leading to the call-up of top prospects.
Carlos Mendoza stated, "We have to get through today's game, we'll announce a rotation for the series against the Braves, but as of right now, we haven't had any discussions just yet."
Despite a poor performance, Montas lowered his ERA to 6.38, struggling since his signing with the Mets for a two-year, $34 million contract.
The Mets' starting rotation struggles are compounded with no pitcher completing six innings since mid-June, raising doubts about Montas's future.
The absence of depth forces the Mets into a decision on Montas, considering calling up top pitching prospects like Brandon Sproat.
