The Mets recalled Tony Armas Jr. from Triple-A New Orleans so he can start tonight against the Cards, according to Mets.com.  To make room on the roster, the Mets designated Andy Phillips for assignment.  After making the start tonight, the Mets intend on using Armas in the long-relief role once occupied by right-hander Claudio Vargas.  In 17 starts with the Zephyrs, Tony compiled a 5-7 record and a 2.54 ERA, striking out 88 batters and walking just 20.  For his career, Armas holds a 3.98 ERA against the Cardinals.
