Amazin' Clubhouse

Tonight will mark the eleventh overall postseason appearance for the New York Mets franchise.

The loveable Mets went from 0-5 and 11 games under .500 to the hottest team in baseball from June through September and are now in contention for a World Series berth.

The Amazin's have a long hill to climb as they'll need to win two games in Milwaukee to advance and take on the NL East Champion Phillies in the NLDS. Carlos Mendoza will send Luis Severino to the mound to take on Freddy Peralta for Game 1 of the Wild Card round.

The Mets have an arsenal of veteran starting pitchers in: Severino, Sean Manaea, Jose Quintana and David Peterson all available for the series.

As brilliant as MVP candidate Francisco Lindor has been along with Jose Iglesias, Brandon Nimmo and the rest of the Mets lineup, the team's experienced front line starters give them a puncher's chance in a tournament where they'll be considered heavy underdogs.

The Mets began the penultimate week of the 2024 MLB season earning a 1-game lead over Atlanta following a 2-1 victory over Washington on Monday night. This hours after the Mets received some good news on the health of Francisco Lindor, who will miss the Nats series at the very least. Can the Mets "never say die" attitude keep them going with 12 games to go? Let's discuss.

The New York Mets begin the month of September only a game out of the last Wild Card slot in the National League. Despite a couple of bad losses to San Diego and Arizona, the Mets went 7-3 on their most recent road trip, including sweeping the lowly White Sox. Now with September bearing down, can the Mets complete the task? Francisco Lindor has been the team's MVP. Now it's up to Pete Alonso and Brandon Nimmo to join in and push New York to its first postseason berth since 2022.

The New York Mets are partying like it's 2013. That's the last time the Amazin's swept a season series from the Pinstripes.

Not even a delays in refueling the team plane could stop them. The Mets were stranded on the tarmac in Miami into the wee hours of Tuesday's and that couldn't stop the surging Mets on Tuesday in the Bronx.

Carlos Mendoza's Mets followed a narrow 3-2 win with a 12-3 romping in the finale. Francisco Lindor hit a three run shot and a two run bomb, Pete Alonso's two-run round tripper with Tyrone Taylor and Mark Vientos adding solo bombs.

The Mets look like a team to be reckoned with come October, while the Yankees are searching for answers to a mid season swoon.

The Yankees still hold the overall edge against the Mets in head to head matchups with an 80-66 mark and five game series win over them in the 2000 Subway World Series.

Can the 2024 New York Mets parlay their storybook run in June and early July into postseason glory later this year? We will find out as the second half opened up on Friday night. Let's discuss the biggest keys to that must happen for the Mets to keep the good vibes going in Flushing
