Jacob deGrom #48 of the New York Mets throws a pitch
Just a few weeks ago the New York Mets sat seven games outside the NL wildcard race, and even after acquiring pitcher Marcus Stroman and his impressive 3.09 ERA, most saw the Mets as simply an afterthought as we inch closer to the playoffs. Flooded with issues often warranting laughs from surrounding clubs, even including an affair which involved a pitcher and manager threatening a reporter with violence after a loss, the Mets’s disappointing narrative for the season already appear printed onto New York newspapers weeks before the season’s end.
However, as the summer transitioned into its final month, something strange happened in the Big Apple’s largest burrow: the Mets started winning. Now riding a 13–1 record during their 14 last contests, the Mets find themselves somehow only 1 game back from the second wild card spot, breathing down the necks of the Philadelphia Phillies, Milwaukee Brewers, and St. Louis Cardinals.
