Quintana, Scott set for May 7 Mets - Rockies finale
José Quintana and Christian Scott were set for the mets - rockies series finale on May 7, 2026, with Colorado trying to stop a six-game losing streak and avoid a home sweep. The matchup also put the Rockies in position to answer quickly after a week that had already seen them sweep the Mets in Queens.
Quintana after Atlanta
Quintana took the ball for Colorado after one of his best starts of the season against the Atlanta Braves. He worked six innings and allowed one earned run on a solo home run, striking out three before the Rockies bullpen gave up the lead after he left.
Scott's short route back
Scott arrived on the other side with a sharper recent workload than the rest of his season suggested. He had opened 2026 in Triple-A Syracuse after missing all of 2025 following Tommy John surgery with internal bracing, then made two big league starts before this game.
His first start lasted 1.1 innings and included walks to five of the 10 batters he faced, plus a hit batter and a balk. The second covered more ground: eight strikeouts, no walks, and three runs allowed, two earned, on three hits.
Rockies at Coors field
The earlier meeting with Colorado gave Scott a clear reference point. He had faced the Rockies once before and allowed three earned runs on seven hits in 4.1 innings, with two of those hits leaving the yard.
That made the final game of the homestand a direct test of whether Colorado could turn a strong Quintana outing into something it had not been able to find lately: a break from the losing streak. The game was carried on KOA 850 AM/94.1 FM and KNRV 1150 in Spanish.
