It’s not out of the question that Tong could ascend to the majors before the end of the year, but the Mets have an extremely crowded rotation mix and little incentive to push him too aggressively. The 22-year-old righty notched his fourth double-digit strikeout performance of the season on Saturday and is up to 107 punchouts over 67 innings of work at the Double-A level. He’s one of the most intriguing pitching prospects in the fantasy landscape based on his ability to miss bats. He’s a name to watch in the second half of the year, even in standard re-draft formats.

Sengers returns to the big leagues to serve as the primary caddy to starter Luis Torrens in the wake of the Mets’ decision to option Francisco Alvarez to Triple-A. The 28-year-old backstop can be safely ignored in all fantasy formats.

The writing has been on the wall for a couple weeks now as the Mets finally decided to ship Alvarez to the minors in an apparent effort to hit the reset button and give him a chance to iron things out after struggling to a .236/.319/.333 slash line with just three homers in 138 plate appearances over 35 games. The far greater concern for the 23-year-old former top prospect is that he’s gone from being a near-elite defender when he broke into the majors to merely league-average behind the dish over the last two seasons. Luis Torrens will take over as New York’s primary catcher with Hayden Senger coming up in a backup role.

The sac fly might have been a hit — it was unclear whether Jonathan Clase caught the sinking liner to center without it hitting the grass — but the D-backs declined to challenge it with a 9-1 lead. With Corbin Carroll out, Smith hit higher than sixth in the lineup for just the second time since mid-May; the only other time it happened was also with Carroll absent. Smith has an excellent .274/.394/.458 line for the season, but most of that production came in the first four weeks of the season.

Clemens hit one of four homers for the Twins on the day with a two-run shot off Nick Martinez. The 29-year-old has swatted seven homers on the season, and he’s slugging a solid .496 for his trouble. Unfortunately, that slugging mark has come with a .219 average, but hey, dingers.

This is the first right-handed pitcher that the Twins have faced since Royce Lewis (hamstring) landed back on the IL. With Clemens at second base, Willi Castro will shift to left field, and Harrison Bader will be on the bench. Bader has set against right-handed pitching recently, so this might be the new lineup against righties with Lewis on the IL and Brooks Lee shifting over to third base. That would make Clemens more attractive in deeper formats, but it still seems like he’s going to sit against all left-handed pitchers.
