◆ Matchup preview

New York Mets at Philadelphia Phillies (2026-07-19). Nolan McLean vs Alan Rangel at Citizens Bank Park.

Starters — McLean brings a 3.52 ERA, 1.12 WHIP, and 107.1 innings with strong bat-missing numbers at 10.48 K/9. His 3.27 BB/9 is manageable, and his 0.84 HR/9 shows solid damage control. Over his last three starts, he has worked 6.0 innings each time and allowed 0, 2, and 0 earned runs with 19 strikeouts against 5 walks, pointing to a clear downward ERA trend. Rangel has a 4.19 ERA, 1.40 WHIP, and 19.1 innings, with a comparable 10.24 K/9 but shakier command at 4.19 BB/9 and more home-run risk at 1.40 HR/9. In his last three starts, he logged 3.1, 4.0, and 4.0 innings, allowing 3, 0, and 4 earned runs with 13 strikeouts and 9 walks.

Ewing is 1-for-2 with a 1.000 OPS, Soto is 1-for-1 with a 2.000 OPS, Bichette is 1-for-2 with a 1.000 OPS, and Lindor is 1-for-2 with a 2.000 OPS. Carson Benge is hitless in 2 at-bats with a 0.000 OPS, Jared Young is hitless in 1 at-bat with a 0.500 OPS, and Brett Baty is hitless in 2 at-bats with a 0.000 OPS. Marcus Semien and Luis Torrens have no MLB history vs that pitcher.

Alec Bohm has the best track record among the home hitters against Nolan McLean, going 2-for-3 with a 1.334 OPS. Bryce Harper is 1-for-6 with a 0.334 OPS, while Bryson Stott is 1-for-5 with a 0.400 OPS.

Brandon Marsh, Gabriel Rincones Jr., and Justin Crawford have no MLB history vs that pitcher.
