Jason Bay cleared for baseball activity

Jason Bay has been cleared to begin baseball activity and will leave for Port St. Lucie on Thursday, according to WFUV's Amit Badlani.

Bay was batting .240 with 3 HR and 5 RBI in 50 at bats before being placed on the 15-day disabled list with a broken rib in late April.

Bay will eventually play in minor league rehab games before returning to the Mets, Terry Collins told reporters after the game.
