Matz (elbow) allowed six runs on nine hits over 4.1 innings, but received no decision Friday at the Braves.

EDGE Analysis

Matz entered the fifth inning with an 8-0 lead and only needed to get through the fifth inning to be in line for a win, but he gave up six runs while only retiring a single batter, forcing his early exit. He's now failed to post a quality start in three of his last four outings, and his ERA is at 3.29. He'll make his next start Wednesday at the Nationals.

Matz (elbow) has been confirmed as Friday's starter against the Braves.

EDGE Analysis

Any lingering doubt as to Matz's status was effectively put to rest with a successful bullpen session Wednesday, but the Mets will monitor him closely during Friday's outing. Matz reported experiencing some elbow tightness late in his last start, which helps explain the home run given up to Jeff Francoeur.

Matz (7-3) pitched six innings, allowing two runs, four hits and two walks while striking out seven in Saturday's game against the Braves. He did not factor in the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Matz turned the game over to the bullpen with a 3-2 lead, but that was quickly erased when Tyler Flowers led off the seventh with a homer against Jim Henderson, Matz's replacement. It was his ninth quality start of the season, and a nice bounce back from his unimpressive outing last time out against Milwaukee. He'll draw this same Braves team in his next start on Friday.

Matz (7-3) allowed five runs, four of which were earned, on nine hits while striking out five over six innings to take the loss Sunday at the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

Matz gave up three runs in the second inning, and by the time he left the contest, the Mets were trailing by five runs, leading to his third loss of the year. This was the first time in 10 starts that he's allowed more than two earned runs in a game, and his ERA now stands at 2.71. He'll make his next start Saturday against the Braves.

Matz (7-2) allowed two runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out eight over five innings to take the loss in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Although he pitched very well, Matz threw 101 pitches and had to be removed after five innings. Unfortunately, the Mets' offense came up small and only scored a single run in the contest, leading to the tough luck loss for the lefty. He's now allowed two or fewer runs in eight of his last nine starts, and he currently boasts a 2.69 ERA. He'll make his next start Sunday at the Brewers.

Matz will pitch Tuesday due to the rainout, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Matz had a solid start going with just one run allowed until Todd Frazier touched him up for a critical two-run home run in the sixth inning. He finished just one out away from extending his quality start streak to eight. Still, Matz owns a 2.60 ERA, and after he posted a 2.27 ERA in six starts last season, Matz has been performing at an ace level for about half a season at this point in his young career.
