The Cubs strolled into Citi Field for the first time since last October (this will be the only mention of October). After a sweep of the Reds, they were riding high in pretty much all aspects. The Mets, on the other hand, have been…not. They had just been swept by the Nationals, had lost four straight overall, and were dealing with a lot of injuries. The story of late has been the bone spurs that Steven Matz and Noah Syndergaard are dealing with.
