Max Scherzer - Reinstated before Wednesday return Scherzer was reinstated from the suspended list by the Mets on Tuesday.
Impact Scherzer won't start until Wednesday in Detroit, but his 10-game foreign substance suspension has officially concluded.

Francisco Lindor - Swipes two bags across twin bill Lindor went 1-for-6 with two walks, two runs, an RBI and a stolen base over both games of a doubleheader versus Atlanta on Monday.
Impact Lindor came into the contest with two steals on the campaign, and he doubled that amount with a theft in each contest of the twin bill. The shortstop also drew a walk in each game, snapping an eight-game stretch without taking a free pass. Lindor has been moderately productive so far this season, slashing .215/.325/.430 with four homers, 22 RBI, 20 runs, four thefts and a 13:32 BBK.

Brett Baty - Belts second homer Baty went 3-for-9 with a solo home run, a double and an additional run scored across both games of Monday's twin bill versus Atlanta.
Impact Baty was productive in the doubleheader, smacking a solo shot in the matinee and a double in the nightcap. The rookie extended his on-base streak to 10 games, during which he's slashing .353/.405/.588. The only appearance in which Baty has not reached base this season came in his second contest, when he went 0-for-1 as a pinch hitter against the Dodgers.

Pete Alonso - Drills three-run homer Alonso went 1-for-8 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored across both games of a doubleheader against Atlanta on Monday.
Impact Alonso's lone hit of the twin bill was a big one, as he launched a three-run shot off Spencer Strider in the matinee that gave New York life after initially trailing 6-1. The homer was the 11th of the campaign for Alonso, vaulting him into a tie with Max Muncy for most in the majors. Alonso is also tied for second in MLB with 28 RBI.

David Robertson - Logs two-inning save Monday Robertson earned a save against Atlanta in the second game of Monday's twin bill, allowing two hits and striking out four batters over two scoreless innings.
Impact The Mets turned to Robertson in the eighth inning Monday while nursing a one-run lead. The right-hander worked around a one-out single in that frame, then continued into the ninth after New York posted an insurance run to make the score 5-3. Robertson gave up a leadoff double to Ozzie Albies to begin the ninth, but he fanned the next two batters and ended the contest by getting Chadwick Tromp to pop out. Robertson is now a perfect 6-for-6 in save chances this season, and he has given up only one earned run over 13.1 frames. Monday's outing was his first two-inning appearance of the campaign.

Tylor Megill - Falls apart in sixth frame Megill pitched 5.2 innings against Atlanta in the second game of a doubleheader Monday, allowing three runs on four hits and three walks while striking out four batters. He did not...
Impact Megill got through five frames without yielding a run and carried a 2-0 lead into the sixth inning. However, he got into trouble in that frame by allowing a leadoff double and two walks to find himself in a bases-loaded, two-out jam. Eddie Rosario tagged the right-hander for a bases-clearing double, wiping out his lead and ending his outing on a sour note. Megill won his first three starts of the season but hasn't picked up a victory since. Over his past three outings, he's recorded a 6.14 ERA, 1.70 WHIP and unpalatable 10:8 K:BB over 14.2 frames.
