The Mets needed a win on Monday to wipe away the bad taste left after the team suffered three excruciating losses in a matter of just over 30 hours on Saturday and Sunday. New York had Jacob deGrom on the hill in a day game, which he has excelled in to the tune of a 1.84 career ERA, and they were facing a Marlins team that was traveling up from a home series to play at Citi Field before traveling back to Miami, something Don Mattingly expressed frustration about over the weekend. With all that, the Mets were right where they wanted to be, but they did not get the result they desperately needed.
