Projected Role in 2017

Whether it’s with the Mets or not, Blevins will probably be used towards his advantages yet again next season.

Depending on what kind of contract he will receive, especially if he leaves New York, the more money he makes, the more that might be thought of him. How could you overpay for a lefty specialist?

No matter what he makes, 2016 and the way Terry Collins used him should be the blueprint for any team who receives his services. Statistically, 2016 was Blevins best season of his career. Why get away from that and put him in a position where he could be more prone to fail?
