Mets starting pitcher Steven Matz allowed five earned runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out five over six innings in Sunday’s loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. The loss drops him to 4-4 on the season.
Fantasy Impact
Matz had been coming off of two straight quality starts, though he did allow 12 baserunners in one of them. His ERA jumped back up to 3.97 on the year, and he will try to lower it when he takes on the Rockies at home in his next start, where he has pitched much better than on the road this season.
