Worth noting

• Shortstop Wilfredo Tovar tweaked his right hamstring rounding first base in the seventh inning Friday, but he did not believe the injury was serious. Tovar is expected to begin this season at Triple-A Las Vegas.

• Outfielder Eric Young Jr. participated in a full range of baseball activities on Friday and came away encouraged by the improvement of his midsection. Young, who tweaked one of his core muscles earlier this week, hopes to make his Grapefruit League debut within the next few days.

• In honor of third baseman David Wright winning MLB Network's Face of MLB contest, the Mets are offering a $5 ticket special to their Friday, April 4 game against the Reds at Citi Field. Fans purchasing $5 tickets will also receive a Wright T-shirt.
