Next:

Mets RHP Zack Wheeler (6-6, 4.69) is set to pitch the series opener on Friday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. It's his first start since July 7 after dealing with a shoulder impingement. Wheeler has been a hot name as the July 31 trade deadline nears, and contending teams are likely to be paying close attention to his health and performance.

Thor & Diaz might be gone by next week...Wheeler too.

Trainers Room...

Mets manager Mickey Callaway opted to give closer Edwin Diaz a night off to heal his big toe, although Diaz said he was feeling well and declared himself ready to pitch. X-rays were negative, and Diaz threw from 90 feet before the game without issue. ... RHP Walker Lockett was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse to make space for Wheeler.




Next.....

Mets LHP Steven Matz (5-6, 4.75 ERA) makes his third start since a brief stint in the bullpen. He pitched six innings of two-run ball against San Francisco in his previous outing.
