They were unable to finish the sweep with a 7-0 loss. Lucas Duda, Travis d'Arnaud, Steven Matz, Seth Lugo are also sidelined. It is hard enough to deal with that; now the Mets are dealing with another issue involving starting pitcher Matt Harvey. The timing of the suspension coupled with the Mets' signature but always freaky refusal to share details with the press - "We're going to keep it in-house, the way it's supposed to be", manager Terry Collins said about the reason behind the three-game ban - lent extra credence to the speculation that something either really bad or really weird must have happened.
Mets suspended their star for 3 games. Alderson said the right-hander had been sent home, but declined further comment.
Harvey was complaining of migraines and blames a miscommunication with the club for his no-show on Saturday, but it looks like the club wasn't buying it.
Harvey reportedly views the whole thing as a misunderstanding.
The suspension removed Harvey from the 25-man roster.
The Mets called up Adam Wilk from Triple-A Las Vegas for a spot start, his first since 2012.
It was a tough position for Wilk to be in.

T.J. Rivera homered early and hit a two-run double to tie the score in a five-run seventh inning that rallied the Mets past the struggling Miami Marlins 8-7 on Friday night.
This is a situation that will surely continue. Baseball insider Jon Heyman is reporting that the right-handed pitcher could file a grievance against his team to fight the suspension.
"We don't think about it because anything could happen", Urena said.
The Mets will host the San Francisco Giants for a three-game series that begins Monday.
General manager Sandy Alderson announced the team's decision at a press conference but did not reveal details of Harvey's infraction.
