Mets remaining patient on possible trades

Entering this week’s series at Coors Field seven games out of a National League Wild Card spot, and 10 1/2 out of their division, the Mets are beginning to come to grips with the possibility that they will not be serious playoff contenders this summer. But they’re not there quite yet. While a team official said the Mets are open to listening on offers for all their players, including starters Jacob deGrom and Noah Syndergaard, he cautioned that they won’t likely complete any deals soon. The official said the Mets first want to play out the next few weeks to see if they climb back into contention.
