The rookie left-hander was last seen on a major league mound July 5, when he dominated the Dodgers, but after a torn lat muscle and lengthy rehab, he will return to a different scene.
The Mets now lead the NL East and have a lineup capable of producing at a high level.
“There’s a lot of new faces in here, so it’s really cool,” said Matz, who is scheduled to start Sunday at Marlins Park. “They are playing real well, and the fans are really into it, so it’s really exciting to just kind of step into it.”
