The New York Mets had a great weekend on the field, as they swept the Arizona Diamondbacks to stretch their current winning streak to five games. Unfortunately Jacob deGrom exited Sunday's start with another injury, dampening the excitement until we all know he is cleared to get back on the mound.

Still, the Mets bullpen continues to be a strong point for this team. What has been behind their success this year and how heavily can the Mets lean on them right now?

With a few days off this week, is this the perfect time to give deGrom some rest and put him on the IL for a 10-day stint?
