Pagan begins rehab assignment

Angel Pagan, rehabbing from a strained left groin, played in his first game last night for the St. Lucie Mets.  He went 1-3 with a run scored.

Pagan could return to the Mets as early as next week.  It would be a nice upgrade over the clearly-overmatched Fernando Martinez.

After busting out to a .333 / .429 start with the Mets, the injury prone outfielder went down with another malady.

I’d like to see him back with the Mets and soon.  He’s not exactly a game-changer, but he can’t hurt.
