One of those questions is about deGrom who has indicated he will exercise the opt out in his contract. “That’s going to be a tough pill to swallow for a while.” “ It’s tough, it’s really tough,” said Alonso. Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso, who combined for over 240 RBI during the regular season, failed to produce. One hit, the fewest ever in their postseason game franchise history. I thought we had great chemistry, I really thought we had the makeup to do it. Scherzer added, “We had a ballclub that could do it. They both failed in what became a horrible September stretch on the mound. His mega contract was supposed to lead the Mets to that World Series along with Jacob deGrom. “ Our goal was to win the World Series and we failed,” said Max Scherzer.

These next four months will be difficult for the Mets to comprehend as to what went wrong. More so, the offseason begins with a roster that will probably look a lot different when the Mets reconvene at their Spring Training complex in Port St. Which leads to questions as to why the Mets fell short of their goals, always believing they were a World Series contender. “ Nobody cared that we won 101 games,” Nimmo said. They leave with questions of what went wrong, who will return next year, and with a majority of their pitching rotation and bullpen being free agents.Ī few position players also will test free agency, including outfielder Brandon Nimmo who did everything the Mes asked for in center field and in the leadoff spot.

Moments after their best-of-three win, the Padres were the team posing for photos on the mound and in their clubhouse down the hall. This time it was the lower seed and NL Wild Card San Diego Padres. As it was in the 2015 World Series and the 2016 Wild Card game, the opposing team celebrated a playoff series win Sunday night on the Mets home turf, Citi Field.
