Santana's Return to the Mound

Today is probably the most important game we will see this Spring Training as the Mets ace Johan Santana will return to the mound for the first time after surgery. All the reports out of camp have said that he has been extremely sharp, hitting his location every time and getting great movement on his changeup. It will be very interesting to see how fast he is throwing his fastball because last year it seemed he had lost a little velocity. Here is his lineup that will support him :

Matthews  CF
Castillo  2B
Wright  3B
Jacobs  DH
Bay LF
Davis  1B
Frenchy  RF
Cora  SS
Blanco  C
Santana  P

Santana will be followed by Sean Green, Elmer Dessens, Travis Blackley, Eddie Kunz, and Jack Egbert.

The Mets will face Brett Myers and ex-Met Matt Lindstrom. The game is at 1:10 p.m. and will be televised on SNY.
