J.P. Ricciardi, who serves as a special assistant to Mets GM Sandy Alderson, believes that Jack Leathersich could join the Mets bullpen at some point during the 2013 season.
Leathersich, a fifth-round selection from the 2011 draft, posted a 3.00 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 113/32 K/BB ratio over 72 innings in A-ball last season. His strikeout ability and success against lefties, could make him an attractive option as a left-handed specialist out of the bullpen.
