Starting pitchers only getting 2 times thru a lineup?
According to Mark Carig's twitter, the Mets plan on only allowing their starting pitchers to face a maximum of 18 batters in 2018...the exceptions being Thor and DeGrom

Re:
also in an earlier tweet by Carig, he mentions that Dom Smith may be back in AAA to start the 2018 season...

Re:
I think the Smith decision will depend a lot on his condition coming into Spring Training and then how he does while he's there. Yes, the .198 AVG was disappointing, but his pattern has been to take time to adjust to each new level, PLUS the power was significantly better -- 9 HRs in 167 ABs translates to 30 in 576 ABs.
