MIAMI — Life for the Mets with Edwin Diaz sidelined from the closer’s role because of recent struggles began Sunday minus any drama. Reed Garrett pitched a scoreless eighth inning to protect a one-run lead and returned for the ninth after the Mets added insurance. He was credited with a two-inning save in the Mets’ 7-3 victory over the Marlins. Manager Carlos Mendoza said he also had Adam Ottavino available to pitch the ninth if needed, but stuck with Garrett because the right-hander struck out the side in the eighth.

They essentially were done in by turnovers on three consecutive possessions in the period, two by Miles McBride sandwiched around one by Jalen Brunson just before he departed with a fractured left hand in their season-ending 130-109 loss to the Pacers in Game 7. “That’s the thing. Our margin of error is really tight,” Tom Thibodeau said. “The defense, the rebounding, the turnovers … obviously the defense wasn’t there.…
