Edwin Diaz plans to stick with the script.
in his return to the active roster“I will do the same thing — I didn’t have anything that day,” Diaz said at PNC Park before the Mets faced the Pirates. “I will do the same thing. I will rub rosin, dirt and sweat. That is how I have grip on my ball and I will keep doing the same thing.” Mets vs. Pirates odds, prediction: MLB picks, best bets for Saturday
During the suspension, Diaz not only counted toward the 26 players on the roster, but also the 13-pitcher maximum for teams. “Some of the guys can slide back to their other roles now, whether it’s pitching in the sixth, seventh or eighth and it’s just good to have back,” manager Carlos Mendoza said. Most notably, they struggled to get outs in the late innings last weekend when they lost two games against the Astros.“It was tough because I should have been there,” Diaz said.
Diaz missed all of last season rehabbing from surgery after tearing the patellar tendon in his right knee during a celebration at the World Baseball Classic.
