Forget the Maine, we're Fortunato it's Lima Time

According to the Mets website and also mentioned by Gary Cohen on the SNY broadcast, the Mets have put John Maine on the disabled list. Bartolome Fortunato was called up to fill in for today's game. Then on Sunday Jose Lima is scheduled to start against the Braves.

The Mets beat the Braves 8-7 in 14 innings Friday night.

In today's game, Mets starter Victor Zambrano retired the first four batters and after retiring Andruw Jones, he ran off the field, apparently unable to continue. Darren Oliver is now pitching. Willie Randolph will likely keep Oliver out there for a while.

I mentioned this was likely over at Dodger Thoughts yesterday. Ed Coleman reported it Friday on WFAN.

Yes, but I had a cool headline!
