Jacob Degrom vs Mat Latos, 7pm WPIX

"The third of the four-game series between the Mets and Marlins at Citi Field will feature two pitchers off to starkly different starts. The Mets start Jacob deGrom, who is coming off his first win and owns a 1.46 ERA. Marlins starter Mat Latos has lasted a combined 4 2/3 innings in his first two starts with his new team.

Things to know about this game

• Mets manager Terry Collins said he will look to give left fielder Michael Cuddyer a rest at some point this weekend and get Kirk Nieuwenhuis a start. Cuddyer, 36, started the first 11 games. He's had better success against Tim Koehler (.333 average), who will start Sunday for the Marlins, than Latos (.222 average). But he does own one home run against Latos in nine career at bats."
