It took him a few games, but Mets 3B David Wright finally got his first couple hits for the St. Lucie Mets since returning to live games on Sunday. 

Wright laced a couple singles on his way to a 2-for-3 day with a run scored as well. The first hit was a ball hit right back up the middle followed by a single to left.

The Mets and Phillies play the rubber game of a five-game series on Sunday at 7:10 p.m. at BB&R Ballpark at Historic Bowman Field in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.

Mets notes

Since scoring 46 runs in a three-game span, the Mets have scored just five runs in their last 18 innings. ... Mets relievers have a 3.15 ERA in the month of August, which ranks third among all National League teams. ... Austin Jackson has a .378/.418/.568 batting line with two home runs and 10 RBIs in 21 games with the Mets.

The Mets flew into Williamsport, PA on Sunday for their special Little League World Series game against the Phillies. And Little Leaguers were there waiting for them when they arrived...

Mets OF/1B Dominic Smith was promoted from Triple-A Las Vegas on Sunday, reports Review Journal's Betsy Helfand. 

According to MLB.com's Anthony DiComo, the Mets have been hesitant to bring Smith back up as they wanted him to get more outfield reps. He has been primarily in left field since he was sent down. 

Smith has been down with the 51s since the end of July. In 78 games this season, he owns a .255/.330/.387 slash line with six homers and 38 RBI. 

David Wright is 0-for-14 in four rehab games after going 0-for-4 Saturday night for St. Lucie.

Jacob deGrom dazzled in Philadelphia and delivered a complete game, helping the Mets beat Jake Arrieta and the Phillies, 3-1, on Saturday.

Now that's he's finally adding wins to his resume, Jacob deGrom is looking very much like a serious candidate for the National League Cy Young Award.

DeGrom earned his third victory in as many starts Saturday, throwing his third career complete game without allowing an unearned run in a 3-1 victory in Philadelphia.

Cy Young candidate Jacob deGrom didn't allow an earned run in his third career complete game as the Mets defeated Philadelphia 3-1 in a rain-delayed game at Citizens Bank Park.

For Mets manager Mickey Callaway, the answer for why he thinks that Jacob deGrom should win the Cy Young is simple: he's better than everybody else.

DeGrom is a Cy Young favorite, alongside Nationals RHP Max Scherzer.

"I think if you look at his home runs per inning, the BABIP, the FIP, he's better at all those things," Callaway said before the Mets game. "Scherzer has a .250 BABIP, which means he's getting fairly lucky and deGrom's numbers are still better."

The Mets are keeping LHP Jason Vargas in the rotation.

Mickey Callaway told Wayne Randazzo that RHP Corey Oswalt will be moved to the bullpen in a traditional five-man rotation after talks of potentialy using six.

Vargas, 35, is 2-8 this season with an 8.10 ERA and 1.78 WHIP in 53.1 innings.

Mets ace Jacob deGrom has been the best pitcher in the National League this season. Better than Max Scherzer. Better than Aaron Nola. As it stands right now, he should be the frontrunner for the Cy Young award.

But he might not be, because of his won/loss record. And that's the one big difference between deGrom and the above pitchers...

The Mets take on the Phillies on Saturday afternoon at 4:05 p.m. at Citizens Bank Park.

Mets notes

The Mets are 6-4 in their last 10 games and have won eight of their last 14 games. ... The Mets have won 19 of their last 25 series
vs. the Phillies. ... Jacob deGrom has held opponents to three runs or less in 21 straight starts, the second-longest single-season streak in franchise history.

Mets RHP Noah Syndergaard couldn't overcome a rough first inning in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park.

Syndergaard allowed a season-high four runs and gave up eight hits in 5 2/3 innings, including a poor first inning in which he allowed the first four batters to reach base before he even recorded an out.

The 25-year-old Syndergaard (8-3) allowed a leadoff single to Cesar Hernandez and walked Rhys Hoskins to bring up former teammate Asdrubal Cabrera, whose double to left field made it 1-0. Nick Williams followed with an RBI single to center that made it 2-0. Syndergaard got Carlos Santana to hit into a 3-6-3 double play, but Cabrera scored from third to make it 3-0.

Things you should know about Friday's game

1) Syndergaard was hit hard in the first inning, giving up an RBI double to former Met Asdrubal Cabrera to get things started for the Phillies. Nick Williams' RBI single and Carlos Santana's double play plated two more in the inning, making it 3-0. In the fourth, Austin Jackson misplayed a fly ball to deep center field that resulted in a triple for Roman Quinn, who then scored on an RBI single by Jorge Alfaro for the Phillies' fourth run of the night. Syndergaard threw 115 pitches over 5 2/3 innings, giving up four runs and striking out five batters.

It was roughly one year ago that Michael Conforto's All-Star season with the Mets was interrupted after dislocating his shoulder on a swing at Citi Field.

Finally, after months of struggling to get going, it appears Conforto is back to being the intense, competitive, classic left-handed No. 3 hitter the Mets took pride in last summer.

Since his batting average dropped to a season low .216 on July 15, Conforto is batting .320 with a .400 BABIP, a .400 OBP, .570 slugging percentage, six HR, seven doubles and 17 RBI in 26 games, during which the Mets are 13-13...

After Thursday's doubleheader, the Mets take on the Phillies again Friday night at 6:05 at Citizens Bank Park.

Gary Cohen looks back on his 30 years of broadcasting Mets games, which include many memorable and historic moments in franchise history.

Brandon Nimmo saw two hand specialists and the MRI on his left hand came back clean, Mets managery Mickey Callaway said before Friday's game.

Nimmo is day-to-day.

Nimmo was hit by a pitch while attempting to check his swing in the third inning against the Phillies in Game 1 of Thursday's doubleheader, fell to the ground immediately, and exited the game after standing up. X-rays came back negative, and he pinch-ran during Game 2 of the doubleheader.

The Mets have placed RH reliever Bobby Wahl on the 10-day DL due to a right hamstring strain and promoted LH reliever Daniel Zamora from Double-A Binghamton, the team announced Friday.

Wahl, who was acquired in July from the A's in the Jeurys Familia deal, allowed six runs in 5.1 innings (seven appearances) while walking four and striking out seven for the Mets after being promoted from Triple-A Las Vegas.

The 25-year-old Zamora's first Mets appearance will be his big league debut.

In late 2014, early 2015, Mets C Kevin Plawecki was widely considered the second-best catching prospect in baseball, according to more or less every every published top prospect list.

Three and a half years later, after years of being labeled only a backup catcher, he's starting to show that maybe, possibly, he can be counted on as every day catcher for the Mets.

Prior to his first call-up during the summer of 2015, Plawecki was often labeled by scouts as an "offensive catcher," mostly due to his average defensive skills, short, simple swing and impressive contact rate...

Every Friday, we'll be taking a look at how the Mets' top prospects (their MLB.com Top 100 Prospect rankings are in parenthesis) are faring in the minors...

Peter Alonso, 1B, Triple-A Las Vegas (No. 63) -- ETA 2018

Mets OF Brandon Nimmo starred in the Mets huge victory over the Orioles on Wednesday, but was removed from their record breaking game one of their double header against the Phillies on Thursday.

Nimmo was hit by a pitch in his finger in the third inning and exited the game. He reacted to it exactly how you might imagine he would.

"Ah, crud!" Nimmo said after the game.

Steven Matz was roughed up in his return from the disabled list as the Phillies earned a doubleheader split with a 9-6 win on Thursday night at Citizens Bank Park.

For a full box score of the game, click here.

Things you should know about tonight's game...

1) Matz's return from a stint on the DL was not much better than his start that preceded it. After being handed a 2-0 lead in the first inning, the 27-year-old allowed a three-run homer to Rhys Hoskins in the bottom of the inning and three more runs in the second, aided by his own throwing error. Matz (5-10) was lifted after surrendering six runs -- four earned -- on five hits and a walk with two strikeouts and two home runs allowed in two innings.

After scoring 24 runs in the first game of Thursday's doubleheader, the Mets fell to the Phillies, 9-6, in the nightcap.

David Wright has played another game on his rehab stint with St. Lucie and is still hitless against High-A pitching.

Wright's box score, quite obviously, takes a backseat to the fact that he's on the Mets' comeback trail and playing in professional baseball games again.

On Thursday night, Wright went 0-3 in six innings at third base. It was Wright's fourth game in five days.

Steven Matz's return from the DL didn't go to plan.

Matz was shelled for his second straight start, as the Mets' southpaw was unable to last more than two innings against the Phillies. In his last start, Matz couldn't escape the first inning before heading to the DL.

On Thursday night, Matz allowed six runs (four earned) in two innings with a walk and two strikeouts.

The Mets take on the Phillies in their second game of the doubleheader on Thursday night after putting up a franchise record 24 runs in Game 1.

Mets notes

In game one, the Mets scored 24 runs, the most in franchise history. The previous mark was 23 runs on August 16, 1987 at Chicago-NL. … According to Elias, the last NL team to score 15 or more runs in consecutive games was the New York Giants on August 2-4, 1933. … New York's 10-run inning was its first time scoring at least 10 runs in an inning since scoring a franchise-best 12 runs in the third inning on April 29, 2016 vs. San Francisco.

The Mets set a franchise record for runs and hits as they pummeled the Phillies, 24-4, in the first game of Thursday's doubleheader at Citizens Bank Park.

Things you should know about today's game...

1) After capping a nine-run sixth inning with a grand slam in Baltimore Wednesday night, Jose Bautista did the same during a 10-run fifth in Thursday's doubleheader opener. Bautista, who didn't start the game, finished with three hits and seven RBIs. Amed Rosario hit the first pitch of the afternoon for a home run -- his second leadoff blast in three games -- and finished with a career-high four hits along with three RBIs, three runs and a stolen base. Kevin Plawecki reached safely in all six plate appearances, going 4-for-4 with a triple, a double, two RBIs and two walks. 

The 2018 New York Mets are going in the history books.

Against the Phillies, the Mets broke their franchise record for runs (24) and hits (25). Over their last two games, they scored more than they have over a two-game span (40). 

The 2018 Mets shatter the previous two-game record held by the 1990 edition, who scored 34 runs across two games at Wrigley against the Cubs, winning 19-8 then 15-10.

SNY's Keith Hernandez spoke with Doug Williams on Thursday to discuss comments he made Wednesday night concerning Miami Marlins pitcher Jose Urena's right to pitch inside to Ronald Acuna of the Braves after Acuna had homered in five straight games

While noting that the intent should never be to hurt someone and that any pitches should brush batters off the plate or be "at waist level," Hernandez stood by what he said on Wednesday.

"I stand firmly by what I said, and I don't think the pitch was that terrible," Hernandez said.

The Mets (51-67) open a five-game series with the Phillies (66-53) with Game 1 of a doubleheader on Thursday at 4:05 p.m.

Mets notes

Jacob Rhame has been added as the 26th man in advance of the doubleheader. ... The Mets have won five of their last seven games and seven of their last 11. ... The Mets are 19-19 since July 1. ... David Wright will play his fourth game in five days on Thursday night as he continues to rehab with High-A St. Lucie.

Mets reliever Jenrry Mejia is back from his lifetime ban. And he was nearly perfect his first appearance since the ban was lifted, because of course he was.

Pitching for the DSL Mets on Thursday, Mejia allowed one hit in four scoreless innings while walking none and striking out three, according to Michael Mayer. 

The Mets reliever, who was banned from baseball for life in February of 2016, had been granted his conditional reinstatement for the 2019 season back on July 6...

Mets third baseman David Wright will play a rehab game for High-A St. Lucie on Thursday night at 6:30 p.m. in what will be his fourth game in five days.

Wright drew a walk while playing seven innings on Wednesday night, but is still looking for his first hit since beginning his rehab assignment.

"I think slowly but surely, you see the ball," Wright said Monday. "The more pitches I can get under my belt, the better. Hopefully the results come, but that shouldn't [be] and isn't my No. 1 concern right now. My No. 1 concern is trying to catch up to the speed of the game, get into a rhythm offensively and defensively."

On Episode 4 of Rain Delay Theater: The Podcast, Steve Gelbs and Wayne Randazzo are joined by Mets third baseman Todd Frazier! There's all kinds of hilarious stories told by the New Jersey native, such as memories of his early job as a carnival barker and how he got a sneaky edge on the way to winning the Little League World Series. The guys also discuss Todd's early days in the majors and playing in New York close to his family.

Brandon Nimmo went 5-for-5 and Todd Frazier had four RBIs to pace a 19-hit attack as the New York Mets routed the Baltimore Orioles, 16-5.

He may not have hit the long ball, but Mets OF Brandon Nimmo did everything else on Wednesday night in Baltimore. 

Nimmo notched his first career 5-for-5 night with a triple, two doubles and three RBI. He also was hit by a pitch, making him reach base all six times he went to the plate. 

The 25-year-old brought home his first run of the night with a double in the top of the fourth. And he was part of the Mets' nine-run sixth with a two-run triple for his sixth on the season. 

The Mets pounded out 19 hits and scored nine times in the sixth inning en route to a 16-5 win over the Orioles on Wednesday night at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.

Mets RHP Zack Wheeler entered Wednesday having won five straight starts. And with a healthy lead, that number can be pushed to six after another good outing. 

Wheeler only tossed five innings due to a 95 pitch count, but he allowed just one run on five hits while striking out three and walking two. 

In the beginning, Wheeler didn't breeze through his first batters the way he has recently. Instead, Adam Jones hit a single to center to score Jonathan Villar, who got on base with a single himself to kick off the bottom of the first. 

Mets 3B David Wright played his third game in four days with the St. Lucie Mets on Wednesday night. But after four plate appearances, Wright is still searching for his first hit. 

Wright went 0-for-3 with a walk, which makes him 0-for-7 in his three games. At third base, he managed to have two putouts in the game as well. 

Before his game Monday, Wright said that he wasn't worried about not getting a hit yet. He said the more live at-bats he has under his belt, he'll begin to see the ball better, resulting in more contact. 

The Mets were already up 4-1 in the top of the fifth when Todd Frazier came up to the plate. But he didn't think that was enough. 

With two outs, Frazier swung at the first pitch and sent a moonshot over the left field wall for his 11th homer of the season.

Danny Abriano, SNY.tv | Twitter | Mets captain David Wright is making serious progress as he tries to return to the majors for the first time since 2016.

Wright's comeback attempt has gone from pipe dream to realistic, with him suiting up Wednesday night for the third time in four games as he rehabs with St. Lucie. But the odds are still stacked against him.

If Wright does defy the odds and returns to the field with the Mets, what kind of future could be in store for him? Here are three scenarios...

The Mets (50-67) finish their quick two-game series with the Orioles (36-84) on Wednesday night at Oriole Park at Camden Yards on SNY at 7:05 p.m.

19-year-old Mets outfield prospect Jarred Kelenic started off his professional career hot, tailed off, and has picked things up again as he adjusts to the minors.

Specifically, Kelenic is building confidence in center field and at the plate, which he discussed with The Athletic's Tim Britton during a wide-ranging piece.

"I get to make some crazy plays," Kelenic said. "When you play in like that, you kind of have this swaggy confidence: Try to hit it over my head and see what happens. It's helped me in the batter's box, too. Carry that confidence in the outfield and bring it into the batter's box."

RHP Simeon Woods-Richardson, the Mets' second-round pick (48th overall) in June's MLB Draft, has been dominant for the GCL Mets as he's started his professional career. 

The 6-foot-3, 210-pounder out of Kempner High School in Houston, Texas, has not allowed an earned run in 11.1 innings (two starts, three relief appearances), while allowing nine hits, walking four, and striking out 15.

Woods-Richardson features a fastball that touches 95 MPH while also flashing a plus curveball to go along with good arm speed and athleticism, according to Jim Callis of MLB.com...

Mets LHP Jason Vargas allowed two runs in six innings against the Orioles on Tuesday night in Baltimore.

Vargas allowed his first run in the fourth inning when Mark Trumbo drove in Renato Nunez with a sacrifice fly. The Orioles tied the game in the sixth inning when Adam Jones hit a solo home run. Vargas walked three batters and struck out one while throwing 82 pitches.

The 35-year-old Vargas also turned in a quality start against the Orioles earlier in the season when he allowed two runs in five innings in the Mets' 2-1 loss on June 5 at Citi FIeld. He has found success against Baltimore in the past; he pitched a complete-game shutout against the Orioles in 2012 and pitched another complete game against them in 2013.
