They are 5 games out now behind the Cubs... but they shit the bed losing 3 games to the Braves then 3 to the Cubs... it really is a long shot for them to make it to the playoffs now... especially since the bullpen is fucking bullshit.
Last night they get into the 8th inning up by one they bring in Lugo who is legit the only fucking arm they have in the bullpen come in for a 6 out save.. he pitches the 8th, 1-2-3 inning 10 pitches...
then the Mets hang 5 runs in the 9th so they sit Lugo and bring in Sewald who actually has been pitching well..
he gives up 4 fucking runs on 4 hits and they bring in Diaz.. that fucker gives up a hit, and then gives up a 3 run HR to lose the game.
It was the type of shit show loss that could have just ended the season for the Mets... Everything can go right for them in a game, but if any reliever not named Lugo touches the ball there is no confidence.
