The Colorado Rockies are one a bit of a skid, having lost six games in a row dating back to their series in Cincinnati. 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.
Now healthy, Scott started the season with the Triple-A Syracuse Mets but has been called upon twice to start for the big league squad. His first outing of the season ended after just 1.1 innings when he walked five of the ten batters he faced, as well as hitting a batter and balking. Scott’s second start went much better. He struck out eight batters without any walks and gave up three runs—two earned—on three hits.
Scott has faced the Rockies once before, where he gave three earned runs on seven hits—two of which were home runs—in 4.1 innings. This season he is working with a five pitch arsenal: a mid-90s four-seam fastball, a cutter, a sweeper, a sinker, and a split finger.
