WASHINGTON — The mystery of it all is exciting for Chris Bassitt.
“You always want to put your best foot forward, but with a new team it’s a little added,” Bassitt said Friday before. “Hitters have to learn me but I have to learn them, so I’ll see how my game plays out and go from there. I’m hoping it’s Advantage Me, but I’m not sure. I look forward to it, put it that way.”
“I might take a couple things from in-game, but especially with Max it’s more so out-of-game and his preparation,” Bassitt said. “How he’s been able to do it for so long and stay so talented and healthy. It’s something I really admire and hope to do the same.”The Mets acquired Bassitt on March 12 as part of the Athletics’ firesale. He was 27-11 with a 3.26 ERA over 66 games since becoming a regular member of their rotation in 2019.
Bassitt’s parents will make the trip from North Carolina to watch his Mets debut, as they often did on East Coast road trips in the past. It won’t be the only sense of familiarity around, either.
