Their upcoming road series against the Atlanta Braves presents an opportunity to recalibrate. The Braves are eight games under .500 and are 13 games behind the Mets in the NL East.
However, the Mets will need to get back on track without ace pitcher Kodai Senga (hamstring), who's on the 15-day IL. The club announced another pitching injury before Tuesday's game via its social media.

New York put right-handed hurler Tylor Megill (5-5, 3.95 ERA) on the 15-day IL retroactive to Sunday with a right elbow strain. It also recalled fellow right-hander Justin Garza from Triple-A Syracuse.
Megill allowed six runs (three earned) on seven hits in 3.2 innings against Tampa Bay on Saturday.
This means that two of the five hurlers in the Mets' original rotation are out. Right-hander Paul Blackburn, who has made three appearances this year, will start against the Braves on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, right-hander Frankie Montas (lat) and southpaw Sean Manaea (oblique) are still rehabbing, via MLB.com's Anthony DiComo. Manager Carlos Mendoza said that Montas is "fine" physically, but the organization is keeping him in the minors due to his 13.75 ERA over five rehab outings.
Southpaw David Peterson (5-2, 2.49 ERA) will start for New York against Atlanta right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach (5-4, 3.11 ERA) on Tuesday night. The game will start at 7:15 p.m. EST.

James Tibbs III reacts to being in Rafael Devers trade, excited for potential future with Red Sox
While the Red Sox will see Rafael Devers in his new San Francisco Giants uniform this weekend, it might be a while before Boston fans see any of the players the team received in the surprising blockbuster. That is unless they head to Worcester or Portland, Maine. While Devers is already mashing for the Giants, the four players the Red Sox received are either injured or in the minor leagues. Hard-throwing reliever Jordan Hicks is sidelined with a foot injury, while lefty starter Kyle Harrison, outfielder James Tibbs III, and pitcher Jose Bello will be taking the bus for the foreseeable future. Harrison was sent to Triple-A Worcester after Sunday's trade was completed, and has yet to make his debut for the WooSox. Tibbs, meanwhile, is now in Double-A Portland where he made his debut for the Sea Dogs on Tuesday. The outfielder/first baseman, who is currently ranked the No. 6 prospect in the Boston system, collected his first career hit at the Double-A level on Wednesday. On Thursday night, he went 2-for-4 with a pair of RBI and two runs scored for Portland in a 7-6 loss to Akron. Tibbs spoke with WBZ-TV's and CBS News Boston's Joe Weil ahead of Thursday's game and shared his reaction to being traded to the Red Sox, an organization he had always hoped to be a part of. He just had to take a different and very unexpected route to join the Boston franchise. Tibbs' reaction to be traded to the Red Sox Devers was traded just hours after he hit a home run for Boston in a 2-0 win over the Yankees at Fenway Park. He and his teammates were about to board a flight and head off on a nine-game west coast swing, when Devers was pulled aside and told he had been dealt to San Francisco. Tibbs' trade story was just as interesting. He was wrapping up his final game with the Eugene Emeralds in High-A ball and had just worked a walk in the ninth inning. When he got to first base, he was surprised to see he was being lifted for a pinch runner. When Tibbs got back to the dugout, the team's pitching coach handed him a phone. The director of San Francisco's farm system was on the other end, and told Tibbs he had been traded to the Boston Red Sox. "My first thought was, 'Huh, no kidding. Alright.' A lot of emotion," Tibbs told Weil. "Definitely was very sad to leave those guys; I had a great time over there and had a blast with that group of guys in Eugene. But I was immediately so fired up to become a Red Sox." Tibbs got a taste for baseball in New England when he played for the Brewster Whitecaps of the Cape Cod Baseball League in 2023. "Being in New England and playing in the Cape, I knew the love for Boston sports and the Red Sox specifically," he explained. Then Tibbs started wondering how he ended up in Boston. "Then I was like, 'Alright, who was I traded for?' When I found out it was Devers, I was like, alright, this could go one of two ways. It went both ways for sure, with a lot of mixed emotions. I tried my best not to go on social media and get my feelings hurt," he said. While the reaction among Red Sox fans certainly swayed one way after the trade was announced, it didn't take away from Tibbs' excitement. He said it was extremely humbling to be in the trade package for a player like Devers. "To be a part of something like that, it's very cool, very humbling. Very appreciative of the Red Sox giving me a chance to come and play here," said Tibbs. "Couldn't be a better spot, a better opportunity. I'm ecstatic to be here." Tibbs in the Cape Cod Baseball League Tibbs put together a solid campaign for the Whitecaps in his lone season on the Cape, slashing .303/.390/.472 with six homers, six doubles, 25 RBI, and 17 runs scored over 40 games. He was drawn to the region that summer, and hoped to return for his pro career. "I remember walking away like, 'Wow. This place is fantastic.' The people, the places, there are so many cool spots here. I'm a big food guy, and the food is phenomenal so I'm excited to be back for that as well," he said. What food is Tibbs looking forward to scarfing down the most? "Clams and lobster," he said. "It's hard to beat." Tibbs was drafted by the Giants with the 13th overall pick out of Florida State in 2024. He was hoping to go to Boston at 12th overall, but the Red Sox picked Braden Montgomery instead. (Montgomery was traded to the White Sox in the Garrett Crochet trade over the offseason.) "This was a place I had hoped to play one day," Tibbs said of the Red Sox. "I had hoped they picked me in the draft, but they didn't and now I'm here anyways. Pretty funny how the circle comes around in full." Tibbs is hoping to get a crack at Fenway Park in the near future. He was supposed to get a chance to hit some batting practice at the famous ballpark during a prospect day while with Brewster, but it was canceled because of rain when he was on-deck. "It's always been in the back of my mind. At least if I play one game in the big leagues with the Giants, I had hoped it was at Fenway. Now I get the opportunity to call it home," he said. "It's even cooler for me and even cooler for us as a family."

Do athletes need smart glasses? Meta and Oakley think so
TL;DR Meta just launched the Oakley Meta HSTN, a new pair of AI-powered smart glasses for athletes. The glasses feature a 3K camera, open-ear speakers, IPX4 water resistance, and built-in Meta AI. A $499 limited edition arrives July 11, with cheaper models and broader availability to follow. Smart glasses haven't gone mainstream yet, but Meta's not giving up. After targeting the fashion crowd with its Ray-Ban Meta lineup, the company is trying to convince us that the eyewear is a must-have for athletes with the launch of the Oakley Meta HSTN AI glasses. Announcing the launch in its Newsroom, Meta is calling in serious sporting royalty to get people talking about the new device. Kylian Mbappé and Patrick Mahomes headline the launch campaign, with appearances from other pro athletes like J.R. Smith and Boo Johnson. The HSTN (pronounced 'HOW-stuhn') is based on an existing Oakley frame design but adds smart features, including a built-in 3K camera, open-ear speakers, IPX4 water resistance, and Meta AI as a voice assistant. The idea is you can ask it questions during a workout, play a podcast without headphones, or shoot video of your latest trick hands-free. Battery life is rated at up to eight hours of typical use, and the included case holds another 48 hours of charge. The Oakley Meta glasses have been rumored for a while under the codename Supernova 2, and were expected to carry over much of the functionality from the Ray-Ban models, minus a display. At $499 for the limited edition, they're priced firmly in high-end territory, though more models starting at $399 are coming later this summer. Preorders open July 11, with initial availability in North America, Europe, and Australia, and more countries (including Mexico and India) to follow. You can find out more and register your interest on the Meta or Oakley websites. The campaign will also appear at major sporting events like Fanatics Fest and UFC Fight Week. Whether there's a real market for AI-enhanced glasses on the playing field remains to be seen. Got a tip? Talk to us! Email our staff at Email our staff at news@ .

The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Deserve It All—and More
Well before the second season of America's Sweethearts premiered on Netflix this week, I knew what I wanted to say about it. In November, I'd spent a game day embedded with the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders as the Cowboys played the Texans—though 'day' isn't exactly right. The squad worked for more than 12 hours straight, pulling a shift that stretched from Monday morning to the early hours of Tuesday. Sure, some of that time was spent on buses to and from the Star, the Cowboys' headquarters in Frisco, Texas, and some was spent on hair and makeup. (The cheerleaders are responsible for their own professional-level glam, which demands a lot of powder and a lot of time wielding a Dyson.) But most of those hours were spent dancing: 'Thunderstuck,' their pre-kick-off routine, involves both a 50-yard sprint in under eight seconds (in cowboy boots!) and chorus line jump splits. By the end of the night, the whole team was dripping in sweat and covered in blisters, their pantyhose ripped from their high kicks. Many required trainers for various muscle ailments, or to help wrap their ankles. There were dozens of ice packs, foam rollers, and empty Gatorade bottles scattered across the locker-room floor. But there would be no rest for the pom-pom weary: They had practice the next day, and the day after that. They had all the football games, the corporate shows, the press junkets, and the Cowboys Christmas Spectacular. They had major appearances with Kacey Musgraves, at the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix, and at Mike Tyson's fight with Jake Paul in Las Vegas. Netflix camera crews were everywhere, as was our team from Vogue. Everyone stood to profit from their glamorous image—everyone, that is, except for the cheerleaders themselves. Their pay was about $15 an hour and $500 for each appearance. Most had to support themselves with other jobs. They did not have health insurance. Once upon a time, that made a kind of sense. The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader squad as we now know it came about in the 1970s. It was advertised as a part-time gig: You had a few practices during the week and performed during the Sunday games. Half a century later, between Monday Night Football, Thursday Night Football, Pro Bowls, and countless more events, the DCCC are working 30 to 40 hours a week for much of the year, and the Cowboys franchise is worth $11 billion dollars—three billion more than any other team in the National Football League. Their branding as 'America's team,' complete with an unabashed commitment to a stars-and-stripes, yeehaw aesthetic, has made their image endlessly exportable and mineable. Go anywhere in the world, and people know about the Dallas Cowboys—whether they're winning or not. (In 2024, their record was 7-10.)
