Logan Verrett shelled in Detroit in Mets' loss

by Nick Ritrivi | Sun, Aug 7th 8:25am EDT

Logan Verrett lasted just 3 2/3 innings on Saturday against the Tigers allowing seven hits, six earned runs and two walks as the Mets lost 6-5. Following the game, manager Terry Collins implied that there could be a change in the rotation. Verrett is winless with a 5.61 ERA in six starts since Matt Harvey was sent to the disabled list and underwent season-ending surgery. Presumably, Jonathon Niese would take Verrett's spot in the rotation.
