Note: Mets Remaining Schedule
Adam Rubin of the Daily News examines the Mets remaining scheduled and determines with their favorable matchups the Mets may be poised for a big September run.
For the record here is the Mets remaining opponents and their record against them:
- Marlins (6 games): 7-5
- Brewers (3 games): 1-2
- Phillies (3 games): 10-5
- Nationals: (6 games): 8-4
- Braves (6 games): 5-7
- Cubs (4 games): 0-2
To win the National League East, I think the Mets need to have at least 91 wins. Meaning, the Mets would need to go 17-11, a .607 winning percentage, over their final 28, which is very doable against their remaining opponents.
Although, if you remember, the Mets had a very similar schedule last September and we know how that turned out. However, I believe this is a different team and will not let that happen this season.
These last 28 games should be exciting and very intense. Enjoy the ride.
