How rare is this? Rare enough that I seriously thought about posting it in the Religion Forum. As a Mets fan I generally view baseball season as a preparation for eventual martyrdom.

Go METS!!!

Mets in first, Cubs in 2nd place in Central, Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together. mass hysteria.

The Mets will go 130-32

But some team with a 81-79 record will get hot at the right moment and win the 2nd wild card and beat the Mets in the short 5 game series and the World Series again will be between to also ran teams nobody cares about.

Thanks Bud

the hottest team in baseball
Well, considering the Mets are in their 29th year of rebuilding, it's about time they won a few games.
The bigger story is how the hapless Yankees have just won 6 of 7 and put a little zing into this rivalry that has become quite mundane lately.

Let's go Mets!

Aw yeeeah . . . eleven wins in a row . . . and I got to watch the last three of them on TV!

Of course, as a baseball purist I refuse to watch interleague games and believe interleague play (and the DH) should be done away with (what does the World Series mean now?). But I'll be rooting for the Mets to win the pennant regardless.

PS: There are fewer baseball games than ever on TV now. The Braves moved from TBS to the sports tier years ago, Fox has moved its games of the week to Fox Sports, WGN America has dropped the Cubs, and since having to replace cable with satellite a few years ago we no longer get Cardinals or Reds games. Before long only those who buy the whole package will be able to follow baseball at all.

the schmets will never fail to disappoint their fans.....

Thirteen of their first sixteen games have been at home. Get them on the road and they’ll cool off pretty quick. Meanwhile my battlin’ Royals are on a tear.

Congrats to the Amazins’ on their hot start. The fanbase certainly deserves some excitement. RA Dickey’s CY was a few years ago now. The Nats start an all division roadtrip that includes NY, so far they have looked pretty soft.

On their way to 27 wins in a row.😜
