Mets Regular Season Recap

By : Mike Rifkin

A lot of people are still down based on what happened with the Mets last weekend in Atlanta, but that has to change. The Mets are still playing in the Wild Card Round against the San Diego Padres. The Mets were 4-6 vs the Padres this season. 

Despite what transpired in Atlanta it was a sensational season for the Mets. For the fourth time in franchise history the Mets won 100 games, two of the prior three they won the World Series. There were a lot of individual accolades accomplished this season : Jeff McNeil won the Franchise’s second ever batting title, First baseman Pete Alonso set a club record with 131 RBI, Francisco Lindor set a club record for RBI in a season by a shortstop with 107. Future Hall Of Famer Max Scherzer reached 200 career wins and Closer Edwin Diaz who was sensational all season reached 200 career saves. 

I understand that people are upset with what took place in Atlanta last weekend. In my lifetime this was one of the most exciting Mets teams and the season is not over. In the Playoffs anything can happen and I expect this team to fight like they did all season.
