Note: Pelfrey wants to Start, Announcement Today
Mike Pelfrey played catch before yesterday’s game, and told reporters he is not concerned with the tendinitis in his forearm, which sent him for an MRI on Tuesday.
“I’m going to be OK,” said Pelfrey, who wants to still start Sunday.
…from what i can gather, the Mets will wait to see 
how he responds today, following anti-inflammatory medication and yesterday’s catch…
Yesterday, Will Carroll of Baseball Prospectus wrote that Pelfrey will miss his next start, though Jerry Manuel told reporters last night that the team has yet to make a final decision, but will likely make an announcement today.
Nelson Figueroa was pulled from his start yesterday after just two innings in Triple-A Buffalo, leading reporters and fans to assume he’s on deck.
….hmmm, so, if figgy is called up, it would seem Bobby Parnell or OF Jeremy Reed would be most likely to get sent down… or, the Mets could put pelfrey on the disabled list, if they think he’s going to miss a second start, and side-step needing to demote any one…
