NEW YORK -- Thousands of fans donned Mets caps with brunette locks flowing out the back at Citi Field on Saturday night -- a promotional giveaway by the defending NL champs to honor follicly gifted right-hander Jacob deGrom.Those lookalikes are probably the closest the Mets will see to deGrom pitching as they push for a postseason return.DeGrom was scratched from his scheduled start Sunday and is unlikely to throw again this season because of an injury to the ulnar nerve in his right elbow.The 2014 NL Rookie of the Year has been out since Sept. 1 after experiencing elbow pain in a start against Miami. DeGrom felt fine while throwing a bullpen Friday, but then sensed a twinge while tossing a baseball in from the outfield during batting practice about 15 minutes later.Just trying to lob it into the bucket, deGrom said. I guess throwing that bullpen had messed with that nerve. After I threw it, I was like, `OK, I have to go say something.General manager Sandy Alderson announced deGroms prognosis Saturday. Hours later, the Mets gave away the hairy hats before a game against the Twins while hoping to stretch a two-game lead over St. Louis for the second NL wild card.DeGrom will need surgery but has not decided whether he will wait until the end of the season to have it. Recovery time for the surgery is expected to be three months, meaning the 28-year-old will be ready for spring training.DeGrom is 7-8 with a 3.04 ERA this season, including 0-3 with a 9.82 ERA in his final three starts. He said he began experiencing numbness in his right pinky and ring fingers about five or six starts ago and did not tell the team. He then felt pain in the game Sept. 1 and at that point notified the Mets.After the last one, I was like, `OK, somethings not right and I think we need to get this looked at, deGrom said.An MRI showed no damage to deGroms ulnar collateral ligament -- good news for the star righty, who already had Tommy John surgery in 2010. DeGrom said doctors told him it wasnt unusual for Tommy John veterans to experience nerve issues caused by scar tissue buildup around the elbow.Even before the flare up Friday, deGrom expected to have surgery this offseason to address the scar tissue.I think this is good news compared to what it could have been, deGrom said.The Mets will have to defend their wild-card lead without another pivotal piece. DeGrom joins Matt Harvey, David Wright, Neil Walker and Zack Wheeler as Mets likely done for 2016.On top of that, ace Noah Syndergaard and lefty Steven Matz may require operations in the offseason to remove bone spurs in their pitching elbows. If that happens, New York could enter 2017 with five starters coming off surgery.There was some good news Saturday. Slugging first baseman Lucas Duda was activated from the disabled list after missing nearly four months recovering from a stress fracture in his lower back. His role could be limited while he shakes off rust, and Duda said he hopes to contribute fully by the start of the postseason.Matz meanwhile threw a 30-pitch bullpen, signifying he could return soon after already missing a month with left shoulder tightness. Manager Terry Collins said Matz will be evaluated Sunday before determining his next course of action.The rotation is left with regulars Syndergaard and Bartolo Colon backed by rookies Seth Lugo and Robert Gsellman -- Lugo is 4-1 with a 2.27 ERA in five starts, and Gsellman is 1-1 with a 3.57 ERA in four starts.Gabriel Ynoa will start Sunday against Minnesota, and Collins said he expects to use a plethora of people to cover innings.You have to be resilient, Collins said. Theres no guarantees anythings going to happen on a daily basis. So you have to get ready for tomorrow and hopefully the guys who go out there get some big outs.Denny Mclain Athletics Jersey .

Robbie Grossman Athletics Jersey . Toronto has dropped games to Indiana and Miami since a five-game winning streak and closed out a three-game road trip at 1-2.Zipping Classic An intriguing renewal of this event, with five members of the Melbourne Cup beaten brigade and the Victoria Derby fourth, So Si Bon, the leading contenders. The key to this race is the fact it is run at weight-for-age. Proven form under such conditions is important, and the two with runs on the board are Who Shot Thebarman and Big Orange.Who Shot Thebarman was very good when a running-on fifth in the Cup; he ran equally well last year behind Prince Of Penzance before spacing his rivals in the Zipping Classic under an enterprising James McDonald ride. The field is tougher this time but Chris Wallers stayer is treading a known path to success.Big Orange will relish the step away from handicaps, meeting his Flemington rivals anywhere between 1kg and 5kg better off. He was plain in the big one, but he couldnt lead that day and is a live chance here if able to find his rhythm in front.Its interesting that Almoonqith contests this race and not the two-mile Sandown Cup, a race he won in 2015 and one he would go close to winning again had connections gone that way this year. He ran very well in both the Caulfield and Melbourne Cups and is a winning hope.The two Godolphin raiders, Beautiful Romance and Secret Number, have something to find on Flemington running, while So Si Bon was good in the Derby but that form hasnt been tested yet and three-year-olds havent done much this spring when tested in open company.Recommend Bet: Big Orange to win @ $5 with UBET, but play multiples with Who Shot Thebarman and Almoonqith.Sandown Guineas The Carbine Club on Derby day is usually the right form reference for this Group 2 race over 1600m, so its surprising that just one galloper to contest that race reappears at Sandown on Saturday. It looked to be a hot contest, and the runner-up at Flemington, Mortons Fork, can prove it was just that in a Sandown Guineas lacking in depth.?Mortons Fork was just touched off in the Carbine Club by Criterions half-brother Comin Through, who could well be one direct from the top drawer. ?Godolphin has a great record in the Sandown Guineas, having won it four times in the past eight years, and Mortons Fork is just the type to make it number five.?Standing in his way is the filly Jennifer Lynn, whose winning streak of three started in a Benchmark 64 at Coleraine before progressing to Listed company on Melbourne Cup day. She has something to find with the favourite, but is lightly raced and in-form Darren Weir runners must always be respected.Recommended Bet: Mortons Fork to win @ $2 with UBET, but go to town on an insurance quinella with Jennifer Lynn.Best Bet Sandown Race 6, No.1 Mortons Fork @ $2 with UBET For reasons stated above. Has been heavily backed, so the value looks to be gone, but hes been supported for a reason.Next Best Sandown Race 3, No.1 Qewy @ $2.20 with UBETHow Qewy isnt odds-on ranks alongside the Bermuda Triangle and Donald Trump becoming US President as one of lifes great mysteries. The Godolphin raider has been excellent since arriving in Australia, winning the Geelong Cup before running a game fourth in the Melbourne Cup. At Goodwood prior to coming ovver he finished well in front of Francis Of Assisi, last weeks 10-length winner of the Queen Elizabeth Stakes.dddddddddddd The Sandown Cup is a pretty poor race this year -- most, if not all, of Qewys rivals are either out of form or wont stay two miles, or both. Get on now. Will start odds-on. Will win.Next, Next Best Sandown Race 2, No.4 Redkirk Warrior @ $2.40 with UBET Zipping Classic day always comprises horses who have been up a while, so freshness in the legs is often a key to success. Former Hong Kong galloper Redkirk Warrior contests the second race with just one run this prep under his belt, an eye-catching second to Sir Bacchus three weeks ago at Moonee Valley. Boasted some very handy form in Hong Kong last year, and, if his first run in a year wasnt too taxing, he should be winning this under 54kg. There are question marks over the two Darren Weir runners at the top of the weights, so couple Redkirk Warrior with his stablemate, Sovereign Nation, if youre keen on exotics.Over the Odds Sandown Race 4, No.3 Husson Eagle @ $7 with UBETGet the feeling this one has been laid out by trainer Patrick Payne for a first-up crack at this 1000m scamper. Husson Eagle has won two from four resuming from a spell and looks pretty well treated just 2kg above the minimum for a galloper who has beaten Group 1-placed Wild Rain at level weights. Should get a nice run in transit from gate five and could prove too strong down the roomy Sandown straight. Looks a really nice each-way bet.Under the Odds Sandown Race 8, No.4 Illustrious Lad @ $4.40 with UBETIs in very good form, and seemingly went to a new level down the Flemington straight last time, but the Kevin Heffernan Stakes is a new challenge altogether. Illustrious Lad takes on Group 1 winners Lucky Hussler and Under The Louvre, both of whom plummet in class here, at weight-for-age, and has drawn the outside marble in a field of 11. The chances dont end with the top two, either.Illustrious Lad is going the right way, no doubt, but he looks too short in an event that will test him like he hasnt been tested before.Lay of the Day Sandown Race 7, No.8 So Si Bon @ $4.20 with UBETAll spring punters have been sucked in by three-year-olds off low weights, and they have learned at a cost that carrying a postage stamp isnt a rite of passage to success. So Si Bon has 50.5kg in the Zipping Classic because thats what the weight-for-age scale decrees spring three-year-olds should carry; the colt hasnt beaten the handicapper. At any rate, we dont yet know the merit of the Derby form, which the son of So You Think represents via his fourth placing. Although So Si Bon is good, hed need to be verging on exceptional to beat these seasoned stayers. And Im not sure he is.Multi of the Weekend Sandown Race 2, No.4 Redkirk Warrior - PLACE @ $1.47Sandown Race 3, No.1 Qewy - WIN @ $2.20Sandown Race 4, No.3 Husson Eagle - PLACE @ $2.50Sandown Race 6, No.1 Mortons Fork - WIN @ $2Sandown Race 8, No.1 Lucky Hussler - PLACE @ $1.83Multi price: $29.59 with UBET ' ' '
