Jason Bay has a bruised left quad muscle from his collision last night with Indians first baseman Andy Marte.
Bay stayed in the game but was eventually removed when the bruise “knotted up,’’ as he put it and replaced by Jesus Feliciano.
The Mets list him as day-to-day.
It is Jerry Manuel’s policy to normally sit a player the game after he removes him because of an injury so don’t be surprised to see Feliciano start tonight against Cleveland’s Jake Westbrook.


*sigh* well better he rest then get like beltran or castillo.
He’s out of the lineup today. Here is the lineup:
Mets’ Thursday lineup: Reyes-SS, Pagan-CF, Wright-3B, Davis-1B, Francoeur-RF, Carter-DH, Blanco-C, Feliciano-LF, Tejada-2B, R.A. Dickey, RHP
The red hot Frenchy moving up to the 5 hole!
I think they should have Barajas DH
