News
	Matthew Boyd allowed one run on three hits and two walks while striking out five across six innings in Wednesday's 3-0 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Nicholas Rodriguez Thu, Aug 27th	The Mets are optioning Jonah Tong to Triple-A Syracuse. Ari Koslow Wed, Jun 3rd
	Matthew Boyd allowed four earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three across six innings in Friday's 6-5 loss to the Seattle Mariners. Nicholas Rodriguez Sat, Aug 22nd	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
	Matthew Boyd allowed seven runs on five hits and three walks while striking out two across 5.1 innings in Saturday's 8-4 loss against the St. Louis Cardinals. Nicholas Rodriguez Sun, Aug 16th	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
	Matthew Boyd allowed two runs on five hits and three walks while striking out three across seven innings in Sunday's 10-2 win over the Kansas City Royals. Nicholas Rodriguez Mon, Aug 10th	Jonah Tong will make a bulk relief appearance on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Tue, May 26th
	Matthew Boyd allowed five runs (four earned) on nine hits and one walk while striking out three across 6.2 innings in Monday's 10-5 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. Nicholas Rodriguez Tue, Aug 4th	Jonah Tong is expected to pitch again on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Sat, May 23rd
