Carrasco (hamstring) through four innings in a scrimmage Saturday and is on track to return sometime in the second week of May, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carrasco strained his hamstring while doing conditioning work in mid-March. He was given a 6-to-8 week timetable at the time and appears to still be on track. If he can stay healthy once he's back in game action, he'll be a big help to the Mets, as he cruised to a 2.91 ERA and a 29.3 percent strikeout rate last year. The hamstring issue is already his second injury of the season, however, as he'd previously dealt with elbow soreness earlier in camp.
