NY Post: Mets find a stopper on the mound, and it’s not Matt Harvey. "...after manager Terry Collins called a team meeting Sunday and turned to Colon (W,7-3) to play stopper, the veteran did just that with his first quality start in three weeks. He pitched the Mets to a slump-busting 6-3 victory over Philadelphia, and tied for the major league lead with his seventh win...Colon’s awkward swing produced just his second hit of the year in the fifth, and he even tagged up on a fly ball, taking third."

NY Post: Wilmer Flores’ game-winning HR pauses the Tulo, Starlin lust. "On Monday, he smashed a three-run homer in the sixth inning that put the Mets ahead in their 6-3 victory over the Phillies at Citi Field...Flores, Lucas Duda and Michael Cuddyer all homered in helping the Mets (25-21) snap a three-game losing streak in which they struck out 36 times against the Pirates and hit only one homer."
