4/20 1:43 AM Brett Baty (3B-NYM) Mets' Brett Baty sits out again due to hamstring injury. LOS ANGELES — Two days of rest weren't enough for Brett Baty to convince Mets officials he's ready to resume at third base. Baty participated in pregame drills Friday night at Dodger Stadium to test his left hamstring but was absent from the Mets' starting lineup for a second straight game. He left Tuesday's game with tightness in the hamstring after beating out an infield single. Brett Baty Getty Images Manager Carlos Mendoza expressed optimism earlier in the week that Baty would avoid a sting on the injury list. Mendoza was asked Friday if that confidence had waned.

4/20 1:41 AM Emerson Hancock (P-SEA) Mariners, Rockies deal with weekend tweaks to rotation. The Mariners' scheduled starter for Friday, right-hander Emerson Hancock (1-2, 7.98 ERA), will be pushed back to the second game on Sunday. Instead, right-hander Luis Castillo (0-4, 5.82) will go Saturday after five days' rest. Castillo, the ace of Seattle's staff coming into the season, will have a tough act to follow after four pitchers combined on a one-hitter in a 5-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday. "We are driven by our pitching staff and playing really good defense, and I think that's the thing that stood out for me here over the last probably week or so is we have played much cleaner baseball," Seattle manager Scott Servais said.
