News
	Zack Wheeler allowed two runs on five hits and no walks while striking out nine across seven innings in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Dodgers. Nate Miller - FantasyPros Wed, Jul 22nd	The Mets are optioning Jonah Tong to Triple-A Syracuse. Ari Koslow Wed, Jun 3rd
	Zack Wheeler allowed only two hits and two walks while piling up 10 strikeouts across six shutout innings in Sunday's 5-0 win over the Tigers. Nate Miller - FantasyPros Sun, Jul 12th	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
	Zack Wheeler allowed one run on just four hits and no walks while racking up 14 strikeouts over seven innings in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Reds. Nate Miller - FantasyPros Wed, Jul 8th	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
	Zack Wheeler gave up four runs on nine hits and one walk while piling up 10 strikeouts over 4 2/3 innings in Wednesday's 10-6 win over the Pirates. Nate Miller - FantasyPros Thu, Jul 2nd	Jonah Tong will make a bulk relief appearance on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Tue, May 26th
	Zack Wheeler gave up just one run on four hits and one walk while striking out five across seven innings in Friday's 2-1 win over the Mets. Nate Miller - FantasyPros Sat, Jun 27th	Jonah Tong is expected to pitch again on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Sat, May 23rd
