John Maine update . He pitches from the mound

Before the tonight's game John Maine pitched from the mound for 10 pitches.

Maine is totally determined to help the Mets in a relief mode sometime before the end of the year.

After the 10 pitch effort he said he only felt a little knot in his arm which he expect to work it out with more work . Of course no time table has been set.


***** Update******

John is expected to pitch a simulated game this weekend in Atlanta and could be activated when the Mets return home to Shea to face the Cubs.
