Johan Santana (shoulder) is expected to join the Mets after making one final rehab start Friday. That would put him in line to start on September 14 or 15 at home against the Nationals, though it's possible the Mets might wait until their final home stand of the season, which begins on September 23, to give him a start. Santana will be on a pitch count of 50 Friday, so his first outing with the Mets would be an abbreviated one. Santana shouldn't be counted on in fantasy leagues, but a good showing late in the year could give him some momentum heading into the offseason.
