On paper sure, though their best chance is winning it this year. They've gotten this far and to do it again over the next couple of years won't be easy. You never know what could happen to some of their pitchers; Cespedes and Murphy are gone likely, injuries etc. Plus as we saw in the ALDS and NLDS, any team could make it through in a 5 game series. Also, consider Washington likely will be a better team if they make some big offseason moves. On paper, the Mets should be the best in the NL East, though its so difficult to make the postseason every year, let alone get through the DS. Everyone is healthy now, so this is the year. They might not have another golden opportunity like they do now.

 

Go Mets!

 

No, that would be the Nats.

Moving forward? Nats likely won't have Jordan Zimmermann and Ian Desmond next season; Gio has been inconsistent the past two seasons; their lineup has huge question marks after Harper. Obviously if they make some key moves this offseason, then that could change.

After a the intriguing possibilities that existed when the post season began, I'm guessing a Mets Royals WS would be a pretty huge disappointment for the TV people

It would be a crying shame if people didn't tune in for the Mets. That's a VERY interesting team.

Rendon is a huge question mark, Zimmerman is made of glass, I'd take Conforto over Taylor any day of the week. Of course if Stras returns to 200+ innings they'll still have maybe the best 1-2 in baseball, but Mets for me too.

Agree. In fact either us or KC vs Mets would be a very interesting series for real.baseball fans. Just no Cubs Dodgers or Yankees would be a drop in interest for the casual TV sports audience.

What about?

 

About the Cubs "not having to face adversity" and not being "ready" for the playoffs. Russo was complaining about Joe Maddon's antics and Byrnes was defending the Cubs. Both were yelling at each other max volume.

 

Great television

I hate Russo ever since he went off on Votto being selfish and Taking more walks and not hitting more homeruns.

Yeah he's definitely an asshat, but he's entertaining.

Mets add some hitting they have a potential dynasty with that pitching staff. They will probably win the World Series. I don't see the Royals being a problem for them.

DeGrom, Syndergaard, Harvey, Matz, Wheeler.

 

Damn, the Mets are going to be a dynasty if those dudes stay healthy.
