Jacob deGrom gets a crack at the coldest team in MLB on Monday night in the desert.

Will the Mets ever play two straight games as scheduled again? Two of three games against Atlanta were postponed over the weekend because of weather after weather forced the Mets to play a double-header against the Rockies on Thursday. We’re still at only 45 games played, by far the fewest in the NL East.

The silver lining of all the postponed games is the Mets may be able to get somewhat healthy before making some of these games up. Unfortunately, the kids are going to have to stay up late on Memorial Day to watch Jacob deGrom do work against a Diamondbacks team that has won two of their last 18 games.
