A look at what’s happening all around the majors Saturday:
BACK AGAIN
Mets right-hander Zack Wheeler returns from the disabled list to start at Citi Field against the Phillies, who have the worst record in the majors. Wheeler is 3-5 with a 5.29 ERA after missing the past two seasons while recovering from Tommy John surgery. He was pitching well, with a 3.45 ERA, before getting hit hard in two consecutive short starts and going on the DL retroactive to June 20 with biceps tendinitis. ”There had to be a blip someplace. You just don’t go two years without throwing a baseball and come back and pitch as well as he’s pitched without having some type of wear and tear flare up,” Mets manager Terry Collins said.
