Mets At Marlins Preview: Game Time, TV Schedule, Probable Pitchers

The New York Mets will open a three-game weekend set against the Miami Marlins on Friday night. Coming off a series win against the Philadelphia Phillies, the Mets have won four of their last five and sit one game back of the Phillies for third place in the National League East.

R.A. Dickey (16-4, 2.76 ERA) is the projected started for the Mets, while Nathan Eovaldi (4-9, 4.54 ERA) is expected to take the bump for the Marlins.
