Update: Wagner, Putz, Beltran and Jose
In case you missed it…
Billy Wagner pitched a perfect inning
Friday for Single-A St. Lucie, where he will throw again tonight.
…the way i understand it, wagner will keep up this pace, then eventually move to pitching back-to-back days… he’ll do that for a bit, after which talk of him joining the Mets will begin… i’m still thinking mid-month…
Yesterday, J.J. Putz tossed 25 pitches in a bullpen session in Citi Field, where he will throw again Wednesday.
He told reporters he hopes to be back in three weeks, though he’ll know more following his session on Wednesday.
…i suspect putz will have the same schedule as wagner, basically… so, wherever billy is, j.j. will be a week or so behind…
Carlos Beltran took live batting practice on the field Saturday, and hit from both sides of the plate in a 20-minute session.
…from what i can gather, Jose Reyes will do light running today in St. Lucie, but he is taking it slow… as is John Maine, who is still idle, resting, and waiting out discomfort in his shoulder…
