2015 Mets Playoff Run Similar to 1969

This has been an extraordinary run to the playoffs for these 2015 Mets. It is unlike anything Mets fans have ever seen — except for the magical year of 1969.

Will Mets history repeat itself?

The Mets have always been a boom and bust franchise. But they always prepared us for the boom years. Not so in 1969 and this season.

When the Mets won the division in 2006, they sent notice in 20o5 that it might happen by finishing above .500 for the first time in four seasons. So 2006 was not a surprise; it was even expected.
