Mets win eighth in row but lose Travis d'Arnaud and Jerry Blevins to fractures

The Mets have become Club Med and the injuries are all inclusive.

On a day when they won their eighth straight game, the clubhouse had the atmosphere of an infirmary. The new walking wounded included Travis d'Arnaud and Jerry Blevins, both of whom will be lost indefinitely with bone fractures.

The new injuries added to the list of existing ones that range from season-ending Tommy John surgeries for Josh Edgin and Zack Wheeler, an uncertain timetable for Bobby Parnell and Vic Black, and David Wright's disabling hamstring injury.

"Well, it's not a good day," manager Terry Collins said Sunday after a 7-6 win and four-game sweep of the Marlins that gave the Mets a franchise-best 7-0 start at home.
