Crosstown Traffic: Mets-Yanks Gamer I

Pete says that despite the rain, they are going to try and get the game in, but it is likely to be a delayed start. It's fitting that the first game of the subway rivalry will feature Johan Santana for the Mets, and perhaps equally fitting that call-up Darrell Rasner gets the rock for the Yanks. Here's hoping they get the game in tonight, and that the Yankee bats come up with something against arguably the best pitcher in the game over last six seasons, while Rasner shows he's the right choice for the rotation.

Lineups follow, comment away.
