The New York Mets face the Colorado Rockies on Thursday, May 7, 2026 at Coors Field in the finale of their three-game series, with the Mets sending right-hander Scott to the mound against Rockies left-hander José Quintana (1-2, 4.07 ERA). The new york mets vs. colorado rockies matchup follows a 10-5 Mets victory on May 6, in which Juan Soto homered on the third pitch of the game and Marcus Semien added a home run while collecting four hits. The Wednesday game began six hours later than scheduled after a Denver snowstorm forced organizers to push back first pitch. [ESPN, May 7]
The series opener on Tuesday, May 5 was postponed due to inclement weather, prompting MLB to schedule a doubleheader and reshuffle the rotation; left-hander Peralta (1-3, 3.52 ERA) was scratched from his Tuesday start as a result. Both clubs entered the new york mets vs. colorado rockies series at 13-22 and 14-22 respectively, with the Rockies riding a five-game losing streak and the Mets having lost 17 of 20 before opening their current nine-game road trip 4-1. New York is also navigating bullpen attrition, with A.J. Minter, Joey Gerber, and Nate Lavender all listed on the injured list as of May 6. [ESPN, May 6]
Team-stat splits ahead of first pitch show the Mets averaging 3.5 runs per game against the Rockies' 4.2, while head-to-head form favors New York after the May 6 win. Colorado opener Michael Lorenzen entered Wednesday with a 6.09 ERA and surrendered the early Soto homer, contributing to the lopsided result. Thursday's finale at altitude carries weather-related risk given the recent snowstorm and earlier postponement, and the Rockies will look to avoid a series sweep on home turf. The Mets, surging behind Soto and Semien, aim to extend their road-trip momentum before continuing west. [Washington Post, May 7]
