Summary

Myers Limited

Tobias Myers (0-1, 3.41 ERA) makes his second start, likely limited to two-three innings because the Mets’ 16-games-in-16-days stretch has stretched the rotation.
Freddy Peralta (3-3, 3.31 ERA) posted a 2.81 May ERA while reaching only six innings in three of his ten starts.
Eury Pérez (2-6, 5.33 ERA) gave up five runs in two of his last three outings and allowed ten homers in 52 1/3 innings.
