News
	Aaron Nola gave up two runs on just three hits and three walks while striking out seven across six innings in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Mariners. Nate Miller - FantasyPros Wed, Aug 26th	The Mets are optioning Jonah Tong to Triple-A Syracuse. Ari Koslow Wed, Jun 3rd
	Aaron Nola surrendered one run on five hits and no walks while striking out eight across seven innings in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Marlins. Nate Miller - FantasyPros Thu, Aug 20th	Senga (back) could return from the injured list as soon as next week, leaving Tong without a guaranteed major-league spot. The Mets could shift him to the bullpen for a longer look against big-league hitters. Across three bulk-relief assignments this season, Tong has a 3.60 ERA, 1.50 WHIP, and 7:7 K:BB over 10 innings, with walks limiting his ability to work deep into games. Bruno Mulé Wed, Jun 3rd
	Aaron Nola allowed one run on five hits and three walks while racking up nine strikeouts across five innings in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Twins. Nate Miller - FantasyPros Fri, Aug 14th	Senga (back) is expected to return to the Mets' rotation soon, which could push Tong back to Triple-A, where he struggled earlier this season. Tong entered Wednesday as a bulk reliever behind opener Huascar Brazoban, who threw one inning, in his second such appearance of the year. Bruno Mulé Thu, May 28th
	The Phillies say Aaron Nola has a bruised right knee. Ari Koslow Sat, Aug 8th	Jonah Tong will make a bulk relief appearance on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Tue, May 26th
	Aaron Nola left his start Saturday against the Blue Jays in the sixth inning. Ari Koslow Sat, Aug 8th	Jonah Tong is expected to pitch again on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Sat, May 23rd
