Tylor Megill - Set to start Saturday Megill will be recalled from Triple-A Syracuse to start Saturday against Atlanta, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact An injury to Christian Scott (elbow) opened up a spot in the Mets' six-man rotation, and rather than return to a traditional five-man schedule, the team will call upon Megill to fill the gap. The 28-year-old righty owns a 5.08 ERA and 1.44 WHIP through 39 innings in the majors this season, though he was able to get through five innings while only giving up one unearned run and two hits during his latest Triple-A outing.

Starling Marte - Hopes to resume running this week Marte (knee) is hoping to begin a running progression this week, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact Marte resumed baseball activities last week and is looking to continue to ramp things up. He has been shelved since late June with a right knee bone bruise and will require a rehab assignment before being activated, so the veteran outfielder would still appear to be several weeks away from a return.

Tylor Megill - Likely to rejoin rotation Megill is likely to receive a call-up from Triple-A Syracuse to replace the injured Christian Scott (elbow) in the Mets rotation Saturday versus Atlanta at Citi Field, Andy Martino...

Impact Martino relays that the Mets envision using Megill as a high-leverage reliever late in the season, but since he's remained stretched out as a starter after being optioned to Syracuse in late June, the right-hander will be plugged back into the big club's six-man rotation. In his prior eight starts with the Mets this season, Megill turned in a 5.08 ERA and 1.44 WHIP over 39 innings, but his underlying numbers (4.29 SIERA, 17.1 K-BB%) suggested that he pitched slightly better than his ERA would indicate.

Impact Vientos knocked in the first and last runs during the Mets' eighth-inning rally, opening the inning with a solo shot before adding a sacrifice fly. The infielder is batting .294 (20-for-68) with three homers and 10 RBI over 18 contests in July as he continues to hold down a starting role at third base. For the year, he's slashing .290/.345/.545 with 13 homers, 35 RBI, 30 runs scored, 12 doubles and no stolen bases over 220 plate appearances.

Impact Alonso was one of two Mets to reach the 20-homer threshold this season, as both he and Francisco Lindor hit the mark in this blowout win. Alonso has come out of the gates swinging in the second half, going 7-for-23 (.304) over six games since the All-Star break. The first baseman is at a .244/.324/.458 slash line with 53 RBI, 57 runs scored, two stolen bases and 23 doubles through 101 contests this season.
