The New York Mets, back in the hunt for fourth place (and 12th place league wide!) return to San Diego for a brutally late (10:10 PM New York time) start.  The Only Nolan McLean is expected to start for the Mets with Griffin Canning going for San Diego.

Canning was a 2025 Met, and had a surprisingly strong first half before rupturing his Achilles at the end of June.  That ended his season, which may have retroactively been as much of a difference maker in the team's last-day elimination as anything.

Griffin's post-recovery showing has been less stellar, and he brings an 0-and-4 record and a 7.16 ERA into the start.

There aren’t many games in this brutal stretch where the Mets will be favored to win. Tonight is one of those games.
