Nolan McLean shines in debut
Digest more
Nolan McLean is as advertised. In fact, in his MLB debut, he had a start only matched by one of the most-hyped young pitchers in Mets history. McLean went 5.1 innings on Saturday and struck out eight without allowing a run.
As reported by SNY's Andy Martino, one scout believes the Mets made the right call in opting for McLean over Sproat, noting that McLean is slightly ahead in his development.
The Mets could use some big-time help, so who better to call upon than a guy occasionally called Cowboy Ohtani?
