Jason Vargas To Return Saturday
6 years agoNew York Mets starting pitcher Jason Vargas (hamstring) will officially come off the injured list to start on Saturday against the Tigers. Vargas missed three weeks with a left hamstring strain and was 1-2 with an ugly 5.92 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 20 strikeouts in 24 1/3 innings in his seven outings (six starts). The 36-year-old left-hander isn't fooling many hitters these days and will even be an extremely risky streamer when he faces off against the light-hitting Tigers in his first start off the injured list. You'd have to be pretty desperate to use him this weekend.
