Parnell and Black will soon start rehab assignments

Bobby Parnell and Vic Black will likely start rehab assignments with Single-A St. Lucie in the next few days, Mets GM Sandy Alderson said before Monday’s game.

Parnell has been recovering from his 2014 Tommy John surgery and is expected to be activated from the disabled list in late April, early May, according to Alderson.

Black also started the season on the disabled list with “shoulder weakness,” and is expected to return before the end of April.
