David is not in the starting lineup, backup 3B Todd Frazier gets the start. David has a three game HR streak, so hopefully Mickey will not pinch hit him to snap the streak.
Eric Hanhold will be an obscure Faith & Fear mention in 2038.
ROSTER MOVE: The Mets today reinstated David Wright from the 60-day Disabled List and placed RHP Eric Hanhold on the 60-day DL, with a strained left oblique muscle….Wright hit .171 (7-41) with one double, two RBI, two walks and four runs scored in 12 rehabilitation games between St. Lucie (A) of the Florida State League and Las Vegas (AAA) of the Pacific Coast League…He last played on August 29 for the 51s vs. Tacoma…Wright’s last major league game was May 27, 2016 vs. the Dodgers, going 1-4 with a solo homer.
