Since the Mets had a 10.5-game lead on June 1, they're 63-44. That's a 95-win pace over a 162-game season.
They didn't choke away the NL East. The Braves went crazy - 76-32, which is a 114-win pace - and took it away.
If the Mets win 2 of 3 vs. the Nats, they'll have 100 wins.

They got swept by the Cubs at home when they needed to win.
They played small when a few wins here and there locked it up.

If they had won two three from the Nats a franchise trying to lose with a Triple A roster Sep 2 -4 they would have won the division.

Yep. Mets kept doing what they were doing. This isn’t lolMets, this is just the Braves are really good. They’re better than the Dodgers without a doubt.

I mean, they had DeGrom/Scherzer go back to back in the biggest series of the regular season and still got swept.

Well don’t worry about Atlanta then just focus in the last couple weeks when they got swept by the Marlins and loss a series to bad teams ..

Meh. Mets gave it away by not taking advantage of a very weak September schedule. The abysmal trade deadline by the FO didn’t help. Braves were very very good but Mets have only themselves to blame.

Still sucks they couldn’t take care of business against a very weak September schedule. Definitely could’ve won the division last week.

They choked.. stop making excuses for that poverty franchise. The record doesn’t say anything other than “we played in a division with 2 tanking teams.” Their fanbase deserves to cry to sleep tonight.

They choked, Mark…
They choked by losing to the Marlins and Nationals and getting swept by the Cubs in September.

And how many teams have won 114 wins in a season? That's how ridiculous their pace was.
