Mets prospect Zack Wheeler will make his spring training debut on Saturday against the Nationals.

Wheeler will work in relief of starter Shaun Marcum. It will be the young right-hander's first taste of MLB competition. While manager Terry Collins has already confirmed that Wheeler will begin the season at Triple-A, he's likely to make his MLB debut at some point in the 2013 season.
