Today at 12:05 p.m. ET, the New York Mets (18-12 spring training) and St. Louis Cardinals (13-11) take the field for exhibition baseball live from Roger Dean Stadium in Jupiter, Fla in the final preseason game for both teams.
Matt Harvey (1-1, 1.45 ERA spring training) mans the mound for the Mets while the Cardinals counter with Lance Lynn (0-0, 4.50) on the hill.
Harvey, 26, missed the entire 2014 campaign due to Tommy John surgery and pitched to a 9-5 record in 26 starts in 2013 with a 2.27 ERA and 191 strikeouts.
Lynn, 27, went 15-10 in 33 starts last season while fashioning a 2.74 ERA along with 181 strikeouts.
