CHICAGO — Ask those around the Mets, and they’ll say they never thought they’d be in this position — not after jumping out to the best record in baseball through June 12. But here they are, with three games to play and a postseason ticket on the line.
For the Mets, the stakes are simple: win all three in Miami, and they’re in the playoffs. Win two, and they’re probably in pretty good shape. They enter their final series of the season one game clear of the Reds for the final National League Wild Card spot, and two up on the Diamondbacks.
Breaking down the Mets’ playoff scenarios this weekend
The Mets control their own destiny heading into the final three games of the MLB regular season.
Through 159 regular season baseball games, the Mets own a record of 82-77. Heading into their final series of the year—a three-game set against the Miami Marlins at loanDepot park in Florida—the Mets hold the third and final Wild Card spot in the National League. If the season ended today, the Mets would be playing the Dodgers in the Wild Card round, starting on Tuesday at Dodger Stadium.
The season does not end today, however, so the Mets have some work to do. The good news for New York is that they control their own destiny as they try to hold off the Cincinnati Reds (81-78) and the Arizona Diamondbacks (80-79). The Mets hold a one-game advantage over Cincinnati and a two-game cushion over Arizona, but things are not so simple nowadays. With the expanded postseason, tiebreakers carry added significance. If you recall last year, the Mets finished tied with the Diamondbacks but were granted the final postseason spot because they won four of their seven games against Arizona.
