If the Mets could come through with a win tonight or tomorrow (or both), this sweep may be more a slight bump in the road toward securing the top record.
Other than possibly the Toronto series, it hasn't been great baseball recently when playing against teams around the .500 mark or in the playoff chase (CHC, SF, AZ, PHI, TEX). Don't need to get on an absolute heater going into the playoffs, but not limping into the playoffs would also be good. Hope the home series this weekend will start a syncing process rather than create a sinking feeling.
