Mets Turn to Lucchesi as Injuries Mount

Aging pitchers have led to difficult challenges sustaining health for the Mets.
The most recent setback has sent Carlos Carrasco to the injured list for elbow inflammation.
Joining the list of injured starters are Justin Verlander and Jose Quintana, though Verlander may return soon.
Joey Lucchesi will likely fill Carrasco's spot for Friday's start against the Giants.
Jeff Brigham has been called up from Triple-A Syracuse for now to provide depth.
