NEW YORK -- Mets third baseman Jose Reyes hopes his absence is limited to a few days after suffering a Grade 1 strain of an intercostal muscle on his left side.Reyes initially felt the muscle act up in his second-to-last plate appearance in the opening game of Tuesdays doubleheader against the St. Louis Cardinals.Wilmer Flores will handle the bulk of the third-base duty during Reyes absence, although manager Terry Collins can foresee using Flores at shortstop and Kelly Johnson at third base for one game if Asdrubal Cabrera needs a day off.Reyes received an anti-inflammatory injection Tuesday night. Collins said that he cannot foresee Reyes returning to the lineup until Friday at the earliest.Were going to take it day by day and see what happens, Reyes said Wednesday afternoon. Today is going to be a treatment day -- put a lot of ice on it and see how I feel tomorrow and try to go from there.Reyes suffered a fractured rib in the same area during the opening week of last season while playing with the Toronto Blue Jays. He initially was concerned the same bone may have been broken.Thank god my rib is fine, Reyes said. Its just the muscle.Describing how the injury occurred, Reyes said: When I hit the ground ball to the pitcher, I felt something wasnt right there. I didnt even pay attention to it. Then my last AB I did a couple of swings and I felt something. When I came in, I told the trainer that I felt something. We went to do an MRI.Flores has thrived against left-handed pitching (.333/.385/.683), but has struggled against right-handers this season (.230/.293/.373). That is what has resulted in him mostly serving as a part-time player.The Mets face a southpaw, Tyler Anderson, in Thursdays series opener against the Colorado Rockies. They also see a left-hander,?Jorge De La Rosa, on Saturday. So the upcoming schedule is favorable for the Mets to plug Flores in at third base for the short term. Günstig Air Max 97 Store .

MEXICO CITY, Mexico -- Lewis Hamilton says it would be amazing if Ferraris practice pace at the Mexican Grand Prix turns out to be genuine.Sebastian Vettel set the fastest time of all in second practice, 0.004s quicker than Hamilton and 0.469s faster than Nico Rosberg. Hamilton needs to win on Sunday to help his championship campaign, but ideally needs Rosberg to finish fourth or lower to put his title chances back in his hands at the final two races.Asked if the Ferraris could get in the mix on Sunday, Hamilton said: It would be amazing if there were up there with us as well as Red Bull.Honestly, Im not really focusing on other people so Im not really surprised about anything, Im just focused on doing my job. They look like they are quite quick, they are obbviously not as quick as us at the moment but maybe tomorrow will be different -- who knows.ddddddddddddI think I had more time on my lap, I think my best lap was lap five or something so the tyres were old by then. Itll be interesting tomorrow but I hope they are in the battle with us.Last year Hamilton struggled for pace in Mexico compared to Rosberg, but he said he was already feeling much more comfortable.The programme went well, on the super-soft run I didnt really get a good lap so I know I have some more time in it so I think tomorrow is going to be interesting. Its a much better Friday than it was last year here on Friday. ' ' '
