On the Mets beat

Notes from a Mother’s Day pregame in Milwaukee
-- Cliff Floyd is sitting again and Jose Valentin is in left. This gives Floyd three straight days off with the Mets off Monday. Willie Randolph said Floyd will play Tuesday in St. Louis.
-- The Mets are wearing pink wrist bands and at least four players (Beltran, Delgado, Wright and Nady) will use pink bats as part of MLB’s “Strikeout Challenge,” a week-long program to increase awareness of breast cancer through the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. For more information on how to donate to the fund, go to MLB.com
-- Keith Hernandez wasn’t pinch hit for much in his playing days. But Ed Coleman will fill in in the SNY TV booth on Sunday because Hernandez is ill.
