Outlook Nolan McLean
Mets' Rookie Standout Nolan McLean Prepares for Favorable Weekend Start in San Diego
The fifth-place Mets (27-35) continue to rely on Nolan McLean, who currently slots in as the number three starter in the rotation with Kodai Senga on the injured list. While McLean has hit a rough patch over the last 30 days with a 6.16 ERA, he showed grit in his most recent outing, allowing just one earned run over five innings despite battling five walks.
Despite recent bumps that have pushed his season ERA to 4.31, his underlying metrics remain highly encouraging. McLean's elite sweeper and high-spin sinker continue to miss bats, supporting an excellent 10.71 K/9. Our projections expect a strong rest-of-season rebound, forecasting a 3.46 ERA and a 1.20 WHIP.
McLean is scheduled for a single remaining start this week on June 6th on the road against the Padres. He will draw a highly favorable matchup against Griffin Canning, who has struggled to a 7.16 ERA and 1.55 WHIP, making this an ideal spot to stream or start the rookie. Verdict: Start.

Outlook Will Warren
Will Warren looks to keep rolling in a key division matchup against Boston.
Will Warren has been in excellent form lately, posting a stellar 1.50 ERA over his last 12 innings of work. He currently slots in as the number five starter for the second-place Yankees (36-25), who are looking to snap a short two-game skid. With Max Fried sidelined with an elbow injury, Warren's rotation security is locked in.
Through 12 starts this year, Warren has excelled with a 3.34 ERA, marking a massive improvement from his 4.82 ERA in 2025. Although a 1.41 WHIP over the last 30 days suggests some impending regression toward our projected 4.32 season ERA, his strikeout upside (118 projected Ks) makes him a strong asset.
Warren has one scheduled start this week on June 6th at home against the rival Red Sox, squaring off against Ranger Suarez (3.38 ERA). Our weekly model projects a strong six-inning outing with around five strikeouts. Given his current momentum and excellent team context, lock him in. Verdict: Start.
