Steve Trachsel made his second rehab start for Class-A St. Lucie today. He pitched four innings of one-hit, no-run ball, striking out three (box score).
Trachsel is no star, but he is a dependable #4 starter who will be pitching in the #5 slot for the Mets when he returns. More importantly, this will mean that Kaz Ishii won't get to start anymore, and I won't have to weep like a little girl every five days.
