Pedro Beato To Return From DL On Tuesday

An article by Brandon Butler

According to Adam Rubin via Twitter, Pedro Beato tossed an inning in an extended spring training game Friday for the first time since landing on the disabled list with what the team officially called right elbow tendinitis.

Beato landed on the DL on May 4, three days after pitching three scoreles innings in relief at Philadelphia. The Mets are expected to activate him from the DL on Tuesday when he is elgible to return.

Beato, 24, is 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA (zero earned runs/17.0 innings) in 11 games this season. The 6-4, 220-pound rookie has allowed nine hits and four unearned runs, walked three and struck out 10.

Our own Clayton Collier wrote that his streak of 17.0 innings without an earned run to start his career is the second-longest in Mets history. Only Jack DiLauro in 1969 compiled a longer run (17.2 innings).

The bullpen’s been on fire lately, and getting Beato & his 0.00 ERA back is sure to help. Only question is who will we send down? My money’s on O’Connor.

By the way, I’m working on my own Mets blog this season. If you got some time, you should check it out @ midwesternmet.blogspot.com . We also just got a Twitter, just go twitter.com/midwesternmet

  “Only question is who will we send down?”
  
  My money’s on Misch. Why send down O’Connor back down while he’s doing great thus far?

    I hope they send down Igarashi, the guy isn’t even a big leaguer, he has lousy stuff, and pitches dumb.

    We need to send Misch down so we have an option to bring up should we need an emergency starter.
    
    O’Connor is doing fine out of the pen so far so might as well leave him there!
