After a brief break for some snow, the Rockies now find themselves on the verge of being swept at home by the New York Mets for their seventh consecutive loss.
The very same New York Mets the Rockies swept in Queens just over a week ago. The left-handed José Quintana will be making the start for the Rockies. Quintana is coming off one of his best starts of the season against the Atlanta Braves.
He pitched six innings while giving up just one earned run on a solo home run with three strikeouts. Quintana would unfortunately see the Rockies bullpen give up the lead he left the game with in an eventual loss. On the mound for the visiting Metropolitans is Christian Scott.
The 26-year-old righty made his debut in 2024 with a 4. 56 ERA over nine starts. Unfortunately, he missed the entirety of the 2025 season needing Tommy John surgery with internal bracing.
