00:00The Mets have been playing really well of late.
00:05Their seven-gamer finally ended last night, so I guess it wasn't grimace after all.
00:10But they are playing better baseball, and they're frankly back in it.
00:15I think they were a half game out of a wild card when the day started, so they can't be
00:19too disappointed with their crappy start now that it's leveled off.
00:23No doubt.
00:24And they should thank their lucky stars, Scotty, that they are in the future in National League
00:28wild card picture, where you see teams at 500 or maybe under 500 in the playoffs if
00:34the season were to end today.
00:36Now, spoiler alert, that ain't going to happen come September.
00:41There will be at least a couple of these teams that get into the mid-80s, that do just enough,
00:46that maybe have one or two hot streaks, and find their way into the playoffs.
00:50Mets could be one of those teams.
00:51I don't think they're a great team by any means.
00:54I think that the best players are entirely too streaky, whether it's Lindor, Alonzo,
00:58what have you.
00:59The key for them is Diaz.
01:01If Diaz can straighten it out in the ninth inning, the Mets will be in this thing all
01:05season long.
