Asdrubal Cabrera leaves game with thumb injury; x-rays negative

Mets RHP Rafael Montero is not a lock to make his next start, according to general manager Sandy Alderson. Alderson told reporters on Saturday that he was "disappointed" by Friday night's outing and that the team is looking at options both inside and outside of the organization.

Montero only lasted 3.2 innings in his first start of the season against the Marlins, as he gave up five runs on seven hits and walked four other batters. The 26-year-old pitcher has a 10.45 ERA so far this season, along with 10 strikeouts to 11 walks.

The Mets (13-15) play game two of their three-game series against the Marlins (12-16) on Saturday evening at 7:10 p.
