The New York Mets will bring out their two big guns to start the final two games of their four-game series in Atlanta.

Now if they can only stay healthy enough to get past the second inning.

The Mets lost their starting pitcher after two innings for the second straight game against the Braves on Tuesday. Taijuan Walker left with back spasms after throwing only 32 pitches.

On Monday, Carlos Carrasco exited with a left oblique strain that landed him on the injured list.

Now, with Atlanta having won the first two games of the series, the Mets need a big finish from Max Scherzer on Wednesday and Jacob deGrom on Thursday. The Braves have trimmed the Mets’ lead in the National League East to 3 1/2 games.
