Here are the latest Mets notes as the regular season rolls on... J.D. Martinez’s ‘feeling good’ ahead of debut After a long ramp up to get ready to join the big-league team, Martinez is officially set to make his Mets debut in Friday night's series opener against the St. Louis Cardinals. The veteran slugger experienced lower back soreness during his process and was shut down for some time after undergoing a cortisone shot. After successfully making it through a handful of minor-league appearances, Martinez is finally feeling good ahead of his orange and blue debut. “I made it,” he said. “It wa ..read more

Olu Fashanu may primarily be a left tackle, but the Jets' first-round draft pick does not mind where the team decides to play him. At his introductory news conference on Friday, Fashanu was asked just how comfortable he is playing other positions on the offensive line. “Super comfortable,” Fashanu said. “At the end of the day, I want to win. So I’m going to do everything in my power to help this team win. So, it’s not up to me where I play, but wherever they put me I’m going to make the most out of it.” That could even mean playing at guard for the 6-foot-6, 312-pound lineman. Jets quarterback ..read more

Mets pitchers Kodai Senga and Tylor Megill, who are both dealing with shoulder injuries, are about to take big steps toward potential returns. Senga, who has a moderate right posterior capsule strain, threw an up-and-down bullpen session on Thursday and is set to face hitters on Monday for the first time since landing on the IL, reports Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. Facing hitters is possibly Senga's final hurdle before beginning a rehab assignment. Senga was transferred to the 60-day IL earlier this month in order for the Mets to clear a spot on the 40-man roster. He is eligible to return on May ..read more

Prior to Friday night’s series-opening matchup with the St. Louis Cardinals at Citi Field, the Mets recalled DH J.D. Martinez from Triple-A Syracuse. As expected, Martinez will jump right into the Mets’ starting lineup as the designated hitter after dealing with back tightness while ramping up his workload to get prepared for the season. After receiving a cortisone shot and being shut down for a few days, the slugger enjoyed some success, going 6-for-19 with two doubles and four RBI across five minor league appearances. Coming off a season in which he recorded 27 doubles, 33 homers, and 103 RB ..read more

Forget about the refs, Jalen Brunson’s shooting or slowing down Tyrese Maxey. Mitchell Robinson’s ankle is the biggest factor for the Knicks heading into a pivotal Game 4 against the 76ers. Robinson couldn’t play in the second half of New York’s Game 3 loss to Philadelphia due to a left ankle sprain. It’s unclear when Robinson injured the ankle. But he landed awkwardly after Joel Embiid grabbed his right leg in midair at the 4:34 mark of the first quarter. The play infuriated the Knicks and led to a brief scuffle between the two teams. Embiid was issued a Flagrant 1. Robinson stayed in the gam ..read more

The Jets bolstered their offensive line by selecting Penn State tackle Olu Fashanu with the 11th pick in the draft on Thursday night. However, they still have plenty of outstanding needs heading into day two. New York only has one selection scheduled for Friday night -- a third-rounder at 72. Here are their main remaining needs and potential selections at each spot... Wide Receiver Having not taken a pass-catcher with their first pick, as they were widely expected to, the Jets will now presumably turn their attention to addressing that need on day two instead. USC’s Brenden Rice, the son of Ha ..read more

Tom Thibodeau and the Knicks knew that Game 3 of the Eastern Conference first round at the Philadelphia 76ers would be a battle. To several players who spoke with reporters after Thursday's 125-114 loss, though, Joel Embiid's Flagrant 1 foul on Mitchell Robinson -- grabbing his leg and knocking him down at the 4:34 mark of the first quarter -- crossed a line. "I think the grab that he did on Mitch was dirty," said Donte DiVincenzo, who confronted Embiid after the play. Thibodeau suggested in his postgame news conference that a pool reporter ask crew chie ..read more
