DENVER — With an oversized new batting helmet that drew no shortage of comical comparisons, David Wright singled in his first at-bat in an otherwise unremarkable return from the disabled list here Tuesday night in an 8-3 loss to the Rockies. There was nothing funny about Mike Pelfrey‘s woeful pitching performance, though.

In the notes, there are a host of medical updates on Carlos Beltran, John Maine, Johan Santana, Oliver Perez and Gary Sheffield. You know, just your average day in Mets Land.
