Last night, down one run, with two outs, 28–year-old Omir Santos hit a 
two-run home run over the Green Monster in Fenway Park, paving the way for a Mets win.
“This was a huge win for us,” Jerry Manuel said after the game.
Santos is hitting .270 with six extra base hits and 15 RBI during 24 games for the Mets this season.

In the Daily News, Adam Rubin writes, “Brian Schneider could return to the Mets from the DL within a week.”
… a few weeks ago, the talk was that santos would get sent down when schneider returns… now, i see no way the Mets can let this happen… castro has to go, unless the Mets again plan to carry three catchers… however, given all the injuries, and playing short handed, how is that justified… sorry, ramon…
Castro, who played just 52 games each of the last two seasons, is batting .239 with a .316 OBP in 24 games this season.
