Mets Daily Prospect Report, 9/6/26: Can Collins keep it up?

Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (71 – 65) ROCHESTER 14, SYRACUSE 9 (BOX) Emilien Pitre’s first Triple-A home run – along with homers from Ronny Mauricio and MJ Melendez – were not enough to overcome a truly dreadful pitching performance from nearly every arm who got in the game tonight.
