Boyd’s stellar opening month has given way to recent struggles, thanks in large part to the long ball. After holding opponents to two home runs in 44 1/3 innings over his first seven starts, he has allowed five homers in his last three outings.

At Citi Field
(24-26)
LHP
0-2, 11.20 ERA, 11 SO
Soto’s fourth Major League start will be his first one on regular rest, which should allow the 24-year-old some time to polish his secondary pitches to get hitters off his mid-90s fastball. Opponents are hitting .393 off his power sinker.
RHP
3-4, 4.93 ERA, 72 SO
The Mets can only hope that Syndergaard, whose early-season struggles were somewhat of a mystery to them, is finding his groove. Syndergaard has delivered quality starts in three of his last four outings, with a 2.40 ERA over that stretch.
