The New York Mets and Colorado Rockies are set to conclude their four-game series on Thursday, May 7, 2026, at Coors Field in Denver, following a weather-disrupted schedule. The series originally began on Monday, May 4, with the Mets securing a 4-2 victory behind a solo home run from rookie Carson Benge and a strong performance from Mark Vientos. However, Tuesday's game was postponed due to inclement weather, and Wednesday's contest was moved from a 1:10 p.m. start to 7:20 p.m. in anticipation of a late spring snowstorm. The postponed game will be made up as part of a doubleheader on Thursday, with the series finale now serving as the second game of the twin bill. [AP News, May 4] [Washington Post, May 5]
Both teams enter the finale with nearly identical records, as the New York Mets sit at 13-22 (fifth in the NL East) and the Colorado Rockies are 14-22 (fifth in the NL West). The Rockies are on a five-game losing streak and will start left-hander Jose Quintana (1-2, 4.07 ERA) against Mets right-hander Christian Scott, who was originally slated to start Thursday's series finale before the schedule shift. The Mets' pitching staff has been affected by injuries, with relievers Joey Gerber, A.J. Minter, and Nate Lavender all placed on the injured list as of May 6. The Rockies, meanwhile, have struggled offensively, averaging just 3.5 runs per game compared to the Mets' 4.2. [ESPN, May 6] [FOX Sports, May 6]
The outcome of the New York Mets vs. Colorado Rockies series finale carries implications for both clubs as they attempt to climb out of last place in their respective divisions. For the Mets, a win would snap a rough stretch and improve their 7-10 road record, while the Rockies are desperate to end their losing skid at home, where they are also 7-10. The doubleheader on Thursday means both teams will need to manage their bullpens carefully, with the potential for extra innings in either game. The New York Mets vs. Colorado Rockies matchup at Coors Field, known for its hitter-friendly conditions, could see elevated scoring, particularly if the weather clears and temperatures rise.
