As bad as this series was, it’s not what lost the Mets the East. Atlanta’s a great team. They showed it.

What lost them the East was going 6-8 vs. WSH, MIA, CHC & OAK in Sept.
The Mets have to reset and get ready for Friday. It’s a tougher road, but it’s still in front of them.
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.

Transactions:
New York Mets released Hal Reniff on October 3, 1967.
New York Mets released Manny Hernandez on October 3, 1989.
2004 | At the site of the franchise's first National League game in 1969, the Expos, who are scheduled to move to Washington, D.C. next season, play their last game in their 36-year history, losing to the Mets at Shea Stadium, 8-1. Their finale, which turns out to be the rubber match of the franchise series with New York, gives the Amazin's a 299-298 advantage in the 597 contests played since 1969. |
2008 | Jerry Manuel, who replaced Willie Randolph in June, inks a two-year deal to manage the Mets. The likable 54 year-old skipper, who compiled a 55-38 record in his interim role, built a three-and-a-half game division lead over Philadelphia in September, but like his predecessor, could not stop the team from collapsing at the end of the season. |
2019: The Mets fire manager Mickey Callaway after two rocky seasons at the helm which were more akin to a soap opera than the workings of a contending team.
