The Mets look to bounce back from the home run festival yesterday and pick up a win in the 7:10 PM start in San Juan, Puerto Rico. They'll be throwing Hisanori Takahashi (6-3, 3.78 ERA) out to face fellow lefty Nate Robinson (5-6, 4.89 ERA). The lineup:
1. Jose Reyes SS
2. Angel Pagan CF
3. David Wright 3B
4. Jason Bay LF
5. Rod Barajas C
6. Fernando Tatis 1B
7. Jeff Franceour RF
8. Ruben Tejada 2B
9. Hisanori Takahashi P
It's good to see Pagan back in the lineup, however, I hope he's fully ready to play as we don't need him worsening his injury. I'll also be interested to see how well Bay plays today after busting out with two homers yesterday. Would be nice to see him come back strong today and get hot. The Mets beat Robinson the only time they faced him this season, roughing him up for six earned in 4.2 innings. Takahashi took a no decision in his only start against Florida, giving up five earned in 5.1 innings.
