preGame: Mets vs O’s, Duque vs. Pelfrey
The Mets will face the Orioles at 1 pm today in Fort Lauderdale.
Orlando Hernandez will start for the Mets, followed by Mike Pelfrey, both of whom are competing for the final spot in the team’s starting rotation.
…in fact, Billy Wagner and Jorge Sosa will throw only a bullpen session, so that pelfrey and el duque can battle it out, mano a mano, on the mound during the game…
SS Jose Reyes will bat leadoff, followed by 2B Luis Castillo, 3B David Wright, OF Carlos Beltran, 1B Carlos Delgado, OF Ryan Church, OF Fernando Tatis and DH Brady Clark.
