Mets announce lineup vs Milwaukee Brewers for Sunday game

Yahoo2 days ago
The Mets have already dropped their fourth straight series, but they will be looking to avoid a second straight sweep and a seventh straight loss on Sunday afternoon.
On the heels of a 7-4 defeat to the Brewers on Saturday, which included a four-run seventh inning by the Brewers, the Mets will look to grab one victory against MLB's best team at 2:10 p.m. at American Family Field.
One of the lone positives to come out of Saturday's loss was Pete Alonso's tying the Mets record with his 252nd career home run.

The Brewers, who at 72-44 hold the best record in baseball, have won eight straight games.
Sean Manaea will look to stop the bleeding for the Mets on the mound on Sunday. The veteran lefty is 1-1 with a 3.52 ERA. Last time out, he avoided the loss despite allowing five earned runs on seven hits while striking out three.
Quinn Priester will be on the other side for the Brewers. He has had some of the club's best success on the mound, posting an 11-2 record with a 3.15 ERA and 1.19 WHIP in 21 appearances (16 starts) this season.
As the Mets and Brewers face off for the final time in the 2025 regular season, here are the lineups for both teams:

Crowned in Queens: Pete Alonso becomes Mets' all-time HR leader

NEW YORK — Move over, Darryl Strawberry. There's a new home run king in Queens, and his name is Pete Alonso. On Tuesday, Alonso etched his name in the Mets' record books with a single a swing. His third inning home run, No. 253 in his career, surpasses Strawberry's all-time franchise home run record (252). Alonso is no stranger to the record books. In his rookie season, in 2019, he surprised the baseball world when he broke Yankees slugger Aaron Judge's single-season rookie home run record (52) just two seasons earlier. Alonso's 53 home runs remain the single-season record to this day. Next up is the franchise RBI record, which is held by the most recent addition to the Mets' Hall of Fame, David Wright (970 RBIs). Alonso is third on the all-time franchise list with 702 RBIs. That's 298 shy of Wright's record and 64 shy of Strawberry (733 RBIs), who's in second place. Alonso is currently in the first year of a two-year, $54 million contract, which includes a player opt-out. After this season, when he proved to be a force in MLB, batting .267 with 27 home runs and 95 RBIs, third in MLB, the veteran first baseman will likely opt out for more cash. A legend in his own right, he deserves it. Thank you for relying on us to provide the journalism you can trust. Please consider supporting us with a subscription.

Astros' closer Josh Hader headed to 15-day IL with left shoulder strain

The Houston Astros made a splash last month when they reunited with three-time All-Star Carlos Correa. But the Astros didn't come away from the trade deadline with a new reliever. Now they've lost their best one to the 15-day IL. Six-time All-Star Josh Hader, who is currently tied for third in MLB with 28 saves, will have to recover from a left shoulder strain before he returns to the mound, where he's posted a 6-2 record and 2.05 ERA in 48 games this season. The lefty closer reported shoulder discomfort ahead of Monday's game against the Boston Red Sox. "It's [a] punch in the gut,' Astros manager Joe Espada said, per The Associated Press. 'But ... he's seeing doctors right now. We're getting more tests done and hopefully this is not going to be a long-term thing." Hader recorded a season-high 36 pitches across two innings Friday in New York during a 5-3 win that was settled in the 10th frame. That marked his seventh multi-inning appearance of the season. He also warmed up down the stretch of Sunday's series finale, but his number wasn't called while the Astros wrapped up a 7-1 win. Hader is in the second year of his five-year, $95 million deal with Houston. He set a franchise record by starting the season 25 for 25 in save opportunities. Entering the week, he was tied for second among all AL relievers in strikeouts, according to With Hader out, Espada isn't planning on naming a replacement closer. Instead he told reporters that he'll dispatch certain relievers from his bullpen in those situations depending on matchups. 'I feel good about all those guys,' Espada said. It's a group that welcomed back right-handed reliever Shawn Dubin, who was reinstated from the 15-day IL Tuesday. The Astros also recalled lefty Colton Gordon from Triple-A Sugar Land. After bouncing back from a 2-8 stretch that started on July 24 and ended on Aug. 3, the 67-52 Astros went into Tuesday night with a one-game lead over the Seattle Mariners in the AL West.
