Coming off their first win of the season, the Mets (1-5) are set to play the Reds (4-2) three times this weekend. With a four-game series in Atlanta scheduled to start on Monday, the Mets could really use at least a couple of wins in the series, which might not be an easy feat.
The Mets might be thrilled to get a change of scenery following a brutal home stand to start the season. After getting swept by the Brewers in three games to begin the season, the team lost to the Tigers in extra innings on Monday, saw its Tuesday and Wednesday night games postponed by miserable weather, and lost the first game of the doubleheader to make up both games before finally winning for the first time this season.
