The Dodgers are at the Mets in three weeks. An NLCS preview, IMO.

The Braves have proven they just aren't as good as the Mets this year. I know they will get Albies back in a month or so, but the Mets are just a better team IMO, having won 6 of last 8 against them. I'm not a Mets fan, but am a fan of the Mets and how they play. They put so much pressure on teams everywhere on the field, particularly with how many pitches their lineup forces opposing team starters to throw.

Edwin Diaz is having an outrageous season as closer:
IP 45.1
ERA 1.39
WHIP .860
FIP .82
HITS 27
SO 90
BB 12

Dude is averaging two Ks per inning!

Mets are in the middle of the pack in pitches per plate appearance.

They lead MLB in pitches seen in first inning, averaging 20 :)
