Robert Stock - Likely starter for TuesdayThe Mets are "leaning toward" calling up Stock from Triple-A Syracuse to start Tuesday's game in Cincinnati, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

ImpactAs one of the few healthy starting pitchers on the Mets' 40-man roster who isn't already in the big-league rotation, Stock makes for a logical candidate to start in place of Jacob deGrom (forearm), who was moved to the injured list Sunday. Stock tossed an inning in relief for Syracuse on Sunday, but his usage out of the bullpen shouldn't affect his workload too much if he does in fact receive the starting nod Tuesday. Stock previously made one spot start apiece for the Cubs and Mets earlier this summer, giving up seven runs in eight innings between those outings.

Ben Gamel - Reaches base four times SundayGamel went 2-for-3 with a double and two walks in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Mets.

ImpactAfter hitting .333 with four homers in 11 games prior to the All-Star Game, it appeared the outfielder was due for a cooling-off period. He struck out five times in two games following the mid-summer classic before rebounding Sunday. While Gamel still profiles best as a fourth outfielder, he could continue seeing steady playing time, especially if and when the team moves on from right fielder Gregory Polanco.

John Nogowski - Drives in pair SundayNogowski went 1-for-5 with a two-run double in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Mets.

ImpactHe's started 10 consecutive games at first base for the Bucs, going 19-for-42 with four doubles and eight RBI. Starting first baseman Colin Moran (wrist) still has no return date, giving the 28-year-old additional opportunity at first base. In fact, with Erik Gonzalez (side) also sidelined, Phillip Evans is the only other healthy option at first. Nogowski's small sample size signals regression at some point, but in the meantime fantasy managers continue to enjoy production from an unexpected source.
