The long wait to see Zack Wheeler is finally over for Mets fans. The young right-hander, ranked the no. 11 prospect the the game by Baseball America, will make his MLB debut Tuesday night with a start against the Atlanta Braves at Turner Field, reports Anthony DiComo of MLB.com.

With young flamethrower Matt Harvey starting the early game of the club's double-header on Tuesday, the day is setting up to be a very memorable one for the Mets faithful. Not since Generation K in the mid-90s have the Mets had two young starters with as much promise as Harvey and Wheeler.

Good luck in your return tomorrow Zack !!!

RHP Zack Wheeler is to start Friday's series opener against Miami, his first big league appearance since Sept. 25, 2014. Wheeler injured his elbow pitching against Miami in a spring training game on March 9, 2015, and had surgery 16 days later to repair a torn right ulnar collateral ligament. He returned last summer and threw 17 pitches over one inning in a rain-shortened start on Aug. 6 for Class A St. Lucie, then complained of elbow discomfort and didn't pitch again. ''Certainly, he'll (be) amped up,'' Collins said. ''Emotionally, I'm sure he'll be nervous.'' Wei-Yin Chen is the Marlins' scheduled starter, the middle of three straight lefties the Mets are to face.
