Mets' Frankie Montas: Cleared to face hitters

Share Video
Montas (lat) will throw a live batting practice session Friday, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports.
It appears to be the first time Montas will face hitters since he went down with a high-grade right lat strain in mid-February. The right-hander would appear close to a rehab assignment if all goes well, and the Mets have previously pegged early June as a possible return for Montas.
