The Mets' series opener against the Rockies at Coors Field has been postponed due to inclement weather, with freezing rain, snow, and frigid temperatures forecasted for the Denver area. Originally scheduled for Tuesday evening, the game will now be made up on Thursday afternoon at 3:10pm EDT, while Wednesday's contest moves to a 9:20pm EDT first pitch—pushed back from its original 3:10pm start. This scheduling shuffle also impacts both teams' travel plans, as Thursday was initially a travel day for the Mets (headed to Arizona to face the Diamondbacks) and the Rockies (bound for the East Coast to play the Phillies).

The Mets have been riding a wave of momentum on their nine-game road trip, winning three of their first four games against the Angels and Rockies after a disappointing 3-6 homestand. Their 4-2 victory in Monday's series opener was fueled by a four-run sixth inning, highlighted by Carson Benge's home run, and a stellar outing from the pitching staff. With Freddy Peralta and Christian Scott originally slated to start Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively, the team is expected to push both pitchers back a day to maintain their rotation rhythm. As the Mets look to keep their hot streak alive, fans will need to adjust their schedules—and perhaps their wardrobe—for these rescheduled games in the chilly Colorado conditions.
