Bartolo Colon, Robert Gsellman could start Game 1 of NLDS if Mets advance

New York Mets pitchers Bartolo Colon or Robert Gsellman would start Game 1 of the National League Divisional Series in the event that they advance past the San Francisco Giants in Wednesday's Wild Card Game.

What It Means:

Colon will also be available out of the bullpen on Wednesday, but if he's not used and they advance, he would get the nod for the Mets in Game 1 of the Divisional Series. If Colon is needed to secure a victory over the Giants, Gsellman will take the mound for Friday's series opener.

Across 191 2/3 innings this season, Colon recorded a 3.43 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 16.2 strikeout percentage.
