Talk » who broke his right hand when he was hit by a line drive Sept.

NEW YORK -- The way Wilmer Flores is hitting, it appears he plans to stay on the field -- regardless of Jose Reyes arrival.Both infielders were in the lineup Wednesday and teamed up to lead the Mets past Miami 4-2. After the game, however, New York put struggling right-hander Matt Harvey on the disabled list with shoulder discomfort.Flores homered twice, Jacob deGrom pitched seven strong innings and the Mets won for the sixth time in seven games. Reyes had a pair of doubles for his first big league hits this season and keyed a two-run rally in the third.He creates a lot of problems at the top of the lineup, New York second baseman Neil Walker said. Hes going to be important for us setting the table for the guys in the middle.Reyes rejoined the Mets on Tuesday and went 0 for 4 in his first major league game since serving a 59-day domestic violence suspension. All set to play third base, Reyes is expected to cut into Flores playing time -- but the New York fan favorite has hit four home runs since Sunday.Definitely a good feeling, Flores said.Marlins slugger Giancarlo Stanton went deep twice for the second consecutive day, making him the first major leaguer to homer in four straight at-bats since Albert Pujols in April 2006, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.Stantons power surge gave him 200 homers.I did not know that until a minute ago. So thats really cool, he said.But that was all the Marlins mustered in finishing a 3-6 trip. Chris Johnson struck out with the bases loaded to end the first, and Christian Yelich grounded into a double play with runners at the corners in the fifth.Curtis Granderson hit a two-run single in the third after Reyes doubled inside third base. He pointed toward the Mets dugout and patted his helmet several times.Yesterday I was a little excited, Reyes said. Today was more like a normal day for me.The Mets took two of three from Miami ahead of a four-game showdown with the NL East-leading Nationals this weekend at Citi Field leading into the All-Star break.New York was swept in a three-game series at Washington last week.Itd be good to have a little traction going into the off days, Walker said. I think were more confident than we were a week ago up and down the lineup.Following a 26-pitch first inning, deGrom (5-4) settled in and won his second straight start after going winless in his previous 10. The right-hander gave up six hits and struck out seven while throwing a season-high 117 pitches in his final scheduled outing before the break.We needed it. We were a little short again in the `pen today, so we needed him to go deep, Mets manager Terry Collins said.Addison Reed worked a perfect eighth and All-Star closer Jeurys Familia got three outs for his major league-best 30th save. Pinch-hitter Ichiro Suzuki grounded into a game-ending double play, keeping him at 2,990 hits.Familia has converted a club-record 46 consecutive regular-season save opportunities since August, though he did blow a four-run lead this year.Flores connected twice off left-hander Justin Nicolino (2-5), who fell to 0-5 in his last 10 major league starts. It was Flores fourth career multihomer game and second in four days, including a 6-for-6 performance Sunday against the Chicago Cubs.When hes doing what hes doing, its invaluable for us, Walker said.ALL-STAR PLANSCollins, who will manage the National League next Tuesday in San Diego, said New York RHP Noah Syndergaard (9-3, 2.41 ERA) is in the mix to start the All-Star Game. Syndergaard recently had his right elbow checked because hes been pitching with a bone spur, and that will factor into the decision on whether he appears in the Midsummer Classic, Collins said. Syndergaard is scheduled to start Friday night against Washington ace Stephen Strasburg (11-0).TRAINERS ROOMMarlins: 1B Justin Bour was put on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to July 3, with a sprained right ankle. Veteran utilityman Don Kelly was called up from Triple-A New Orleans and played first base, his first major league start since April 12, 2015. The 36-year-old Kelly is married to Walkers older sister, Carrie. Walker twice threw out Kelly on grounders. ... 3B Martin Prado was rested.Mets: Harvey (4-10, 4.86 ERA) was placed on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to Tuesday. He was seen by team doctors and referred to Dr. Robert Thompson for further examination Thursday in St. Louis, the Mets said. Harvey had been scheduled to start Saturday night against Nationals RHP Max Scherzer. RHP Seth Lugo was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas. ... SS Asdrubal Cabrera was scratched from the lineup about 10 minutes before the first pitch. The team announced it was because a family illness kept him up all night. 1B James Loney was inserted, shifting Flores from 1B to 3B and Reyes from 3B to SS, his natural position. Reyes played third on Tuesday night.UP NEXTMarlins: Following an off day, All-Star RHP Jose Fernandez (10-4, 2.69 ERA) starts Friday night at home against Cincinnati RHP Dan Straily (4-5, 4.34). Fernandez is 24-1 with a 1.48 ERA in his career at Marlins Park.Mets: The series opener Thursday night against Washington features 43-year-old RHP Bartolo Colon (7-4, 2.87 ERA) facing 21-year-old Nationals rookie Lucas Giolito, one of baseballs top pitching prospects. Giolito is set to make his second major league start after throwing four shutout innings of one-hit ball in a rain-shortened debut against the Mets on June 28. Gerald Wilkins Jersey . Isner, ranked No. 14, won his eighth career singles title and took the title in New Zealand for the second time after his victory in 2010. The match was similar to Isners quarterfinal victory over fifth-seeded Philipp Kohlschreiber which went to three sets, all tiebreaks and contained no breaks of serve. Jim Barnes Jersey . Barcelonas entertaining victory ensured the defending Spanish champions retained their share of the league lead with Atletico Madrid two rounds ahead of their meeting in the capital. Real Madrid needed a late goal by substitute Jese Rodriguez to earn a 3-2 victory at Valencia to stay in third place and three points behind its title rivals. https://www.cheapknicks.com/1321x-rj-barrett-jersey-knicks.html . -- The St. Johns IceCaps weathered a wild first period with the help of goaltender Jussi Olkinuora, before finding offensive inroads in the second. Howard Komives Jersey . The giant slalom world champion slipped during her first run in the morning, landing on her back and then twisting forward before getting her leg caught in the protective material on the side of the slope. Stitched Knicks Jerseys .C. -- Charlotte Bobcats coach Steve Clifford said after all of these years in the NBA hes still amazed at some of the things LeBron James does. CLEVELAND -- After weeks of being broken and bloodied, the Indians pitching staff may have reinforcements in the World Series.Starter Danny Salazar, who hasnt pitched since Sept. 9 because of tightness in his right forearm, has thrown well in recent bullpen sessions and might be able to pitch for the first time in this postseason.Manager Terry Francona said Friday that Salazar has let it go during some recent workouts and has not been restricted to throwing only fastballs and changeups.I think hes ready to pitch, Francona said as the AL champions awaited their Series opponent.Salazar will throw a three-inning simulated game Saturday and the Indians will assess his status before deciding whether to have him on their World Series roster. Salazar went 11-6 with a 3.87 ERA in 25 starts, but Francona said its possible the hard-throwing right-hander could be used in relief.I think the good news is if Danny pitches, and he pitches healthy and hes throwing the ball over the plate, we have a really good pitcher for however amount of innings hes built up for, which can potentially help us, he said.The loss of Salazar and Carlos Carrasco, who broke his right hand when he was hit by a line drive Sept. 17, has forced Francona to juggle his rotation and be creative with a bullpen which has been extraordinary in October.But a healthy Salazar would give Francona an interesting weapon as he might be able to pair him with rookie Ryan Merritt for a start or use him with Mike Clevinger.Thhe Indians are also hoping Trevor Bauer will be available after his Game 4 start in the AL Championship Series lasted less than an inning when his stitched right pinkie opened up and he had to be replaced because of excessive bleeding.dddddddddddd.Bauer sliced his finger open while repairing a drone prior to the ALCS, an unusual accident that put added strain on Clevelands staff.Bauer said Friday that his finger is healing and hes confident the added rest before the series opens will allow him to pitch. The quirky right-hander was asked when hed be ready.Game 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7, he said.Francona was told of Bauers comments.That would be a little better than the last series, he said sarcastically.Francona said the team met with hand specialist Dr. Thomas Graham to discuss Bauers progress. After Bauer workout out on Friday, Graham was going to add another suture.He thinks its healing really good, theres just that one area down at the bottom where the skin isnt quite as healthy as the rest of it, Francona said. So hes going to suture it back up so it wont bleed. Thats really the only issue. And hes very confident that this is not going to be an issue.Indians ace Corey Kluber is expected to start Tuesdays Series opener, but Francona has not made any formal announcement as he wants to get through the next two days before setting his rotation.
