The Mets Can Win If…
The New York Mets recently secured a 4-2 win against the Colorado Rockies. Kodai Senga pitched six strong innings, allowing only one earned run. Juan Soto and Pete Alonso were key contributors, with Soto going 3-for-4 and Alonso driving in two runs.
The Mets have a solid chance to win with their pitching staff leading the league in ERA at 2.89. Their pitchers have limited opponents to a .225 batting average, ranking fourth. The team also ranks second in fewest home runs allowed, showing their ability to control games on the mound.
Pete Alonso is a key player for the Mets, hitting .298 with 15 home runs and 55 RBIs. Alonso ranks first on the team in RBIs, providing crucial run support. With Tylor Megill starting, the Mets have a reliable pitcher who can keep the Rockies’ offense in check.
The Rockies Can Win If…
The Colorado Rockies lost their last game to the New York Mets 4-2. Despite the loss, the Rockies had nine hits, with Mickey Moniak hitting a home run and driving in two runs. Ryan Rolison, the starting pitcher, had a solid outing, allowing just one hit in one inning.
Hunter Goodman leads the Rockies with a .281 batting average and has hit 10 home runs this season. The team ranks 13th in doubles with 94, showing their ability to hit for extra bases. Their lineup includes players like Tyler Freeman, who has a .283 average, adding depth to their offense.
Chase Dollander will start for the Rockies with a 6.26 ERA. He will look to bounce back and help the team secure a win. The Rockies have shown they can win tight games, as seen in their recent 3-2 victories over the Miami Marlins.
Mauricio’s Monumental Debut Lights the Way
Infielder Ronny Mauricio wasted no time validating his promotion, blasting a 456-foot homer and adding an RBI single in Saturday’s 8-1 rout. Missing all of 2024 after a torn ACL, the 24-year-old’s power—already evident at Triple-A—announced itself to a Mets lineup that has won seven of nine and sits 17 games above .500 for the first time this season. Full roster updates and depth charts are available on the Scores and Stats MLB teams hub.
Pitching Matchup Sets the Tone
Tylor Megill toes the slab for New York after settling in for six innings of two-run ball against Los Angeles last week, throwing 105 pitches and retiring 16 of his final 17 batters. He’ll aim to tame Coors Field’s notorious environs and a Rockies lineup 0-for-8 with RISP on Saturday. Opposite him, rookie Chase Dollander returns from forearm tightness seeking to build on five starts with two or fewer runs allowed.

Rockies’ Historic Struggles Compound Pressure
Colorado’s 12-52 record ties the modern era low for a 64-game start, and a 6-24 mark at Coors is the franchise’s worst through 30 home contests. A lone homer by Ryan McMahon briefly threatened Saturday, but the Rockies’ inability to cash in with runners in scoring position sealed a second straight loss. Interim manager Warren Schaeffer insists Dollander’s development is the silver lining, but a third defeat would deepen a malaise that dates back to Opening Day.
