In a challenging season for the New York Mets, Edwin Diaz has emerged as a reliable figure, securing a crucial save against the Milwaukee Brewers in a tightly contested 3-2 victory. Diaz's impressive season features a perfect 3-0 record and a 1.85 ERA across 34 appearances, demonstrating his dominance on the mound with 51 strikeouts and a WHIP of just 0.91.

However, his absence in the Subway Series opener against the New York Yankees was felt, as he rested after consecutive outings. Reed Garrett stepped in admirably, delivering a six-out save and showcasing the Mets' resilient bullpen. Diaz's return is eagerly anticipated, especially as he nears 800 career strikeouts and aims to maintain his momentum after recovering from injury.
