Max Scherzer allowed a season-high three home runs in his last start. Since joining the Nationals in 2015, Scherzer is 5-2 with a 1.40 ERA in seven starts against the Mets in New York, including a no-hitter in 2015.

Steven Matz has thrown 11.2 innings and only allowed one earned run in his last two starts. He has a 2.37 ERA in six career starts against the Nats, his lowest ERA against a single opponent he's faced more than once.

NEW YORK -- The New York Mets are getting their Opening Day starter back Friday. The Washington Nationals may have watched their former National League Most Valuable Player begin to return to form Thursday.
Two of the game's brightest stars will be on display Friday night, when Noah Syndergaard is scheduled to come off the disabled list when the Mets host Bryce Harper and the Washington Nationals in the second contest of a four-game series at Citi Field.

Mets' Syndergaard returns to face Nationals

NEW YORK (AP)  Noah Syndergaard was back on the mound for the New York Mets and made it clear he wants to stay.
With his name bandied about in trade talk ahead of the July 31 deadline, Syndergaard pitched out of trouble during a rusty return from the disabled list and helped himself with an RBI single as New York beat the Washington Nationals 4-2 on Friday night.
