Mets @ Red Sox
At Fenway Park
RHP
12-3, 3.26 ERA, 138 SO
In his last outing vs. the Phils, Thor took a scary screamer back to his right side, forcing his exit in the 7th. But X-rays were negative, and he aims to bounce back in hopes of achieving another strong start, such as his CG vs. S.F. on Sept. 2.
RHP
0-1, 4.82 ERA, 13 SO
Cuevas draws the start in place of the Hector Velazquez, scratched because of illness. It will be the first career Major League start for the 27-year-old, who has made four big league relief appearances this season.

Mets @ Red Sox
At Fenway Park
RHP
3-2, 6.31 ERA, 37 SO
Due to a doubleheader earlier this week, the Mets need Oswalt to make a spot start Saturday. The rookie last appeared in a game Sunday, allowing two runs in three innings on 59 pitches. His pitch count is likely to be similar at Fenway Park.
RHP
17-7, 4.30 ERA, 187 SO
The sinkerballer comes into this start with an extra day of rest. He gave up seven hits and four runs over 5 2/3 innings in his last start vs. Houston, but left with a lead before the 'pen squandered it. In two career starts vs. the Mets, he's 1-1.

Mets @ Red Sox
At Fenway Park
RHP
8-9, 1.78 ERA, 251 SO
deGrom continues his historic season, setting the record in his last outing for longest single-season streak in Major League history with 26 consecutive starts holding opponents to three runs or fewer. That record was previously held for 108 years.
LHP
12-4, 1.92 ERA, 222 SO
The ace will make his second “opener” in his return from the DL, and this one is expected to be three innings, perhaps four. Last time out, Sale threw 26 pitches in the first, so manager Alex Cora took Sale out and had him up his count in the 'pen.

Red Sox @ Yankees
At Yankee Stadium
RHP
5-7, 3.98 ERA, 87 SO
Eovaldi has pitched well at Yankee Stadium in his career, going 10-5 with a 3.85 ERA. The righty was dominant against his former team at Fenway Park on Aug. 4, allowing no runs and three hits over eight innings.
LHP
16-6, 3.62 ERA, 179 SO
Happ has been one of the Yankees' most reliable starters since his acquisition in late July. In eight starts for New York, Happ is 6-0 with a 2.70 ERA. The Yankees have won all but one of those games.

Red Sox @ Yankees
At Yankee Stadium
LHP
15-7, 3.53 ERA, 171 SO
The lefty has been Boston's ace the last couple of months. In nine starts since the All-Star break, Price is 5-0 with a 1.56 ERA. Price has struggled at Yankee Stadium since joining the Red Sox, going 0-5 with a 10.44 ERA in five starts.
RHP
18-8, 3.38 ERA, 213 SO
Severino showed some encouraging signs in his last outing, but he was miffed at being removed at 83 pitches with two outs in the sixth inning. In 11 starts since July 12, Severino is 3-6 with a 6.43 ERA.
