El Duque's Return Nears

Anthony Di Como at Mets.com, writes about Orlando Hernandez and how he's close to returning:


Randolph said that simulated games should be the extent of El Duque's rehab, with no Minor League assignment in the works. And though there's no telling how many of those simulated outings he'll need -- the staff first wanted to see the effects on his arm a day later -- general manager Omar Minaya hinted that it's feasible El Duque's next outing could be with the parent club.

"It's a possibility that his next start could be a game for us," Minaya said. "We haven't determined which way we want to go on that yet."
