Lopez lasted just four innings in Sunday's start versus the Mets, yielding three runs on six hits and a walk en route to his third loss of the season. He struck out three.
Lopez was recalled from the minors prior to Sunday's start, but that had little to do with the early hook he received, as he simply elevated his pitch count in a short span of time. He threw a solid 62 percent of his pitches for strikes, but he received just one run of support and was done in by a two-run homer by Curtis Granderson in the third. Lopez is not currently scheduled to make another start at the big league level, but he should remain with the club for the duration of the season now that rosters have expanded.
