Green, who was scratched from Tuesday's scheduled start at Triple-A, is expected to be recalled to start Friday's game against the Giants, the New York Daily News' Mark Feinsand reports.
The plan is to give Masahiro Tanaka an extra day of rest this week and to take advantage of an off day to give him an extra day of rest next week as well. Green had one excellent start on July 3 in San Diego, but he gave up a total of 11 earned runs over 8.1 innings in his other two big league starts this year, so he will be a risky option if he does indeed get the call Friday.
