It should be noted that, even before these two disasters, Gary Cohen's bragging about the Mets having gone 10-3 against Washington was somewhat unmerited…given that Braves/Phils/Marlins were 32-6 against those same DCers.

Current records v. Washington, NL East

Miami 12-1
Philadelphia. 10-2
Atlanta. 10-3
MUTTS. 11-5

Worst in the division. STFU, Gary. (Much though I love you.)
I had (fortunately) forgotten that the Pirates fiasco last year basically ended their season. The same Athletic article about that had a section about how the Mets had virtually locked up a postseason berth... 3 games is better than 1 for elimination but they still have no business falling that far. If they can't stay ahead of the Barves against the dregs of the league...
