John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports that Jason Pridie has been suspended 50 games for violating Minor League Baseball's drug program. | ||||||
Well, that will effectively end his chances at earning an Opening Day bench spot. It's not clear at this point what Pridie tested positive for. The 28-year-old batted .231/.309/.370 with four homers and 20 RBI over 236 plate appearances with the Mets last season. | ||||||

Mets purchased the contract of OF Jason Pridie from Triple-A Buffalo. | ||||||
He is in the Mets' Friday evening lineup, starting in center field and batting eighth. The corresponding roster move is expected to be the placement of Angel Pagan (side) on the 15-day disabled list. 27 years old, Pridie has just four major-league at-bats under his belt, all of which came in 2008 as a member of the Twins. | ||||||
