NEW YORK -- Sidelined starter Steven Matz could rejoin the New York Mets this week with an opportunity to pitch, manager Terry Collins said Sunday before the club took on the?Minnesota Twins?at Citi Field.Matz is hindered by a shoulder impingement and has not pitched in a game since Aug. 14. He threw a pain-free 30-pitch bullpen session that included every pitch in his arsenal on Saturday at the team complex in Port St. Lucie, Florida. Sunday was a scheduled off day in his rehab.Matz was 9-8 with a 3.40 ERA when he was sidelined. The long-term goal would be to have him a viable option to pitch in a possible postseason.The Mets would like to see Matz slot in to the rotation spot that was going against the Twins on Sunday, a spot that Collins will use members of his 12-man bullpen to fill. It next comes around on Friday against the?Philadelphia Phillies?at Citi Field. And Collins?acknowledged that if Matz pitches, he will be restricted.We have no plans yet. Nothings written. Steven Matzs name certainly will be in the mix, Collins said. But Steven, when he gets here, is going to be a guy with a limit in workload that he has. So to get him built up and get him where we want, I am not sure we have the starts available.Collins said that Matz will be back at the team complex on Monday.I think tomorrow when he shows up, well know more, Collins said. But we certainly hope that this week hes up here with an opportunity to pitch.Flores hasnt progressed:?Wilmer Flores?right wrist is still ailing. He attempted to swing a bat and reported he couldnt, Collins said. Flores injured it eight days ago while colliding with Braves catcher A.J. Pierzynski in Atlanta and had a cortisone injection Thursday to address the inflammation. ...?Lucas Duda was starting his first game since May.

Rooney returned home after only one day in Thailand and is expected to be out of action for a month, placing him in doubt for Uniteds first match of the Premier League season against Swansea on Aug. 17. "The day we left (Manchester for the tour) he just felt his hamstring tighten up right at the end of training and we thought there would be no problem," Moyes said. "But after the long flight we decided wed get him tested and scanned and have a look at things, and there is just a small grade one injury there. "We wont take any chances -- there is no point in taking him any further round the world, so weve sent him back and hell get treatment.dddddddddddd" Rooney wrote on his Facebook page: "Gutted to have picked up a niggling injury especially as training was going so well, heading back to Manchester to have it assessed fully but early indications are nothing to worry about." The early return provoked further speculation about Rooneys future. Previous United manager Alex Ferguson revealed Rooney asked to leave the club at the end of last season, while Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho said Friday that the 27-year-old England international is a player he admires. "People are entitled to talk about good players," Moyes said. "I am being asked plenty about Wayne, so I am sure Jose will be getting asked about lots of players as well. "It is hard to keep repeating myself but I will do. Wayne is a Manchester United player and will remain that." ' ' '
