The Mets face the Rockies at Citi Field tonight. The game starts at 7:10 p.m. ET. Both teams are struggling this season. The Mets hold a record of 9-16, while the Rockies are slightly better at 10-16.
Mickey Moniak leads the Rockies with eight home runs and a .324 batting average. Freddy Peralta will start for the Mets with a record of 1-2 and an ERA of 4.05. Michael Lorenzen, also 1-2, has a higher ERA of 7.48 for the Rockies.
Injuries plague the Mets as they lose star shortstop Francisco Lindor to a calf injury. He is currently on the 10-day injured list. This loss complicates their efforts to improve their record after recently breaking a 12-game losing streak.
The Mets do have strengths to rely on—specifically their top-10-rated bullpen despite their overall struggles this season. Luis Robert has also contributed with two home runs for New York.
