The Mets and Rockies will play two on Thursday.  

The Mets had a game postponed because of rain? Surprise! The team with the fewest games played in the National League East gets to play two on what was supposed to be a getaway day at Citi Field.

Marcus Stroman will take the bump against German Marquez in Game One at 12:10, a terrific pitching matchup. The second game’s start time will follow the conclusion of the first contest.

At this point the Mets have three hopes for today’s two games:

  • Actually play the games (no more weather)
  • Win
  • Stay healthy

UPDATE: The Mets won game one and stayed healthy! So far, so good…
