Lose two of three, the Mets will still control their destiny going into the final weekend series against the NL Central-leading Brewers, but the road gets a lot murkier.It’s been quite a journey for the Mets to get from there to here, with a 24-35 record on June 2 that’s been followed by the best record in baseball over the ensuing nearly four months.
Prior to Sunday night’s win in the series finale at Citi Field, Pete Alonso noted that it wasn’t just the ugly series versus the Braves in 2022 that helped ruin their season. This time, the Mets will turn to the trio of Luis Severino, David Peterson and Sean Manaea, with the Braves countering with Spencer Schwellenbach, Chris Sale and Max Fried.
And it’s helped them salvage a season that saw them six games back of the last wild card spot with seven teams to pass on May 29 to two games up on Atlanta for that same spot and locked in a battle with Arizona for the second wild card.
