ESPN - The Mets will call up top prospect Jonathan Niese soon, and he is expected to start for the team on Tuesday against Milwaukee, according to Associated Press.

He will be recalled from Triple-A New Orleans to make his Major League debut this coming week.

"You have to perform at some point, and it happens to be Tuesday against a very good team. Let's see what he has. We'll find out a lot about where we're at with him in the next month." [READ]
