NEW YORK — New York Mets starter Clay Holmes is slated to throw for High-A Brooklyn on Sunday, according to interim manager Andy Green, who reiterated that their pitching plans remain fluid with Monday’s trade deadline two days away. “That could change at any point,” Green said, if “market interest got up to a point that feels imminent.”
Tyrone Taylor put the Mets ahead with a three-run homer in the sixth inning, Marcus Semien added a three-run drive in the seventh and New York beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 8-3 to prevent a season sweep.
Sean Manaea had his longest start in 21 months for the Mets, who won a series for just the third time since June 1.
