The 2019 New York Mets passed away suddenly on the evening of September 25. After a Milwaukee Brewers win, the Mets’ season was pronounced dead. It didn’t matter what they did on the field. The two Wild Card spots were taken.
The 2019 Mets leave behind a solid core featuring their new single-season home run champion, first baseman Pete Alonso. The rookie slugger is well on his way to becoming a baseball superstar if he hasn’t already made his way there this season.
Also left behind is yet another Cy Young worthy season from ace Jacob deGrom and a few starting pitchers with talent but plenty of questions.
