Here's what happened in Mets Land on Thursday, in case you missed it...

Francisco Alvarez homered twice and Brandon Nimmo hit a grand slam, but Mets pitching was all over the place, allowing the Braves to come back and walk off with a crushing series sweep.

It's been feast or famine for Justin Verlander this season, and he spoke after the game about working to figure out what's gone wrong in his poor outings.

The Mets are now 8.5 games behind the Braves in the NL East standings, and players like David Robertson voiced their frustrations after Thursday's backbreaking loss.

Pete Alonso was sent back to New York for additional testing, and there is reportedly now "real concern" that the first baseman could land on the IL.

Anthony McCarron writes that whether Alonso misses significant time or not, the Mets must give Mark Vientos an opportunity to prove himself.

Mets top prospect Kevin Parada discusses his strengths on the field and off as he continues his season with the Brooklyn Cyclones.
