Lineup Changes from Previous Game: Cooper and Soler in, Lewin Díaz and Avisaíl García out
Additional Notes: Rogers hasn’t pitched beyond the fifth inning in any of his last five starts. He has allowed nearly as many walks (15) as strikeouts (17) during that period...Berti is tied for the MLB lead with 18 stolen bases this season. That’s despite being used as a part-time player in April and missing the majority of May due to COVID. Perhaps most importantly, he hasn’t been caught stealing since his very first “attempt” (which wasn’t really an attempt—Patrick Corbin picked Berti off first and he tried to make it to second rather than give up easily).
Mets Starting Lineup
- CF Brandon Nimmo (131, 134)
- RF Starling Marte (124, 118)
- SS Francisco Lindor (109, 116)
- 1B Pete Alonso (151, 138)
- LF Mark Canha (133, 117)
- DH J.D. Davis (108, 117)
- 2B Jeff McNeil (142, 128)
- 3B Eduardo Escobar (101, 96)
- C Tomás Nido (58, 53)
LHP David Peterson

Notes: Peterson’s only previous meeting with the Marlins occurred on August 8, 2020 (5.0 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 3 BB, 3 K, 1 HR)...Nido is the Mets starting catcher for a fifth straight day. Impressive workload for somebody who’s typically been used as a backup.
