The Mets and Marlins play game two tonight. Last night’s game featured the return of David Wright as he knocked in two doubles and helped us all remember fast what he means to this lineup. Reyes also had two knocks on the night, going 2-6, lowering his BA (seriously). Anyway tonight the Mets look to get behind another trade candidate in Chris Capuano as he goes against Clay Hensley.

Sanchez 3-6, 2B
Hensley will be making his second start on the year today. So far this year he has pitched in 21 games, with a 2.70 ERA in 20.0 innings of work. His first start of the season was against the Mets as he held the Amazins scoreless for 5 innings of work. The Mets have the following numbers on Clay:
