PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Bartolo Colon makes his second Grapefruit League start as the New York Mets oppose the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday at 1:10 p.m. ET at Tradition Field (WPIX/WOR). Left-hander Tyler Lyons is scheduled to start for the Cardinals.
SATURDAY’S NEWS REPORTS:
Asdrubal Cabrera has been diagnosed with a strained patellar tendon in his left knee and has been advised to be idle for at least two weeks. That suggests that Cabrera very well may open the season on the disabled list, which appears to lessen the likelihood the Mets jettison Ruben Tejada.
