Game Time: 7:10pm
Record: 3-3 Era: 4.53 K:32 BB:27 WHIP: 1.42
Mets Notes:
- The Mets return home from their 10-game trip Monday night for the first of three with the last-place Nationals, whose 10-game homestand couldn’t have gone much worse.
- The Mets’ offense may get a boost Monday. Manuel expects shortstop Jose Reyes, sidelined since Wednesday with tendinitis behind his right calf, to play. Carlos Beltran, who was New York’s designated hitter in Boston because of a bruised right knee, could play as well.
- Maine walked three Tuesday at Los Angeles, but it was a string of hits that knocked him out in the sixth inning. New York had a 3-2 lead, but after a pair of one-out singles Casey Blake homered and the Dodgers went on to win 5-3.
- The Nationals might be the perfect opponent to help Maine bounce back. He went 3-0 with a 1.53 ERA in three starts versus Washington last season despite walking nine in 17 2-3 innings.
Lineups
Record: 2-3 Era: 3.63 K: 27 BB: 18 WHIP: 1.44
Nationals Notes:
- The Nationals (13-30) were 1-8 in the first nine games of their 10-game homestand, and had scored just nine runs in their past four contests heading into Sunday’s finale against Baltimore.
- The Nationals are 9-10 when Dunn drives in a run and 4-20 if he doesn’t.
- Dunn is among the major league leaders with 37 walks while Maine has had a problem issuing free passes – his 27 rank among the top 10 in baseball.
- John Lannan will get the ball for the Nationals, and he’s 2-0 with a 2.55 ERA over his last four outings. He gave up one run and seven hits over seven innings Wednesday in a 2-1 loss to Pittsburgh.
- The left-hander, who was born on Long Island, is 1-2 with a 5.20 ERA in five career starts against the Mets.

Green and Taki up in case J.J. needs help here in the 8th – say Cohen.
And not so sharp Putz and either Green or Taki? Can’t blame Jerry for pacing around in the dugout.

Well, that was just weird. Castillo caught that pop up right at first base. I guess the play now is the veterans at each position are taking charge. Thinking about it, not a bad idea….
