6th Starter?

[Ceetar]

We gonna get Figgy back up here? With the rainout we need a 6th guy for Monday. Who else could it be? I hope not Redding..

Dessens hasn't pitched in forever and we're carrying 2 long men (in him and Misch) and a short bench, let him do it.

He hasn't pitched in so long (11 days. 2.1 IP in 23 days) I'd be worried about him being able to battle through one inning, never mind 5+. Mets are also 1-8 in games he's appeared in.

Well, if they're not going to pitch him because they haven't pitched him, that's a little self-defeating, no?
