With magic number at 5, Mets go with Matz

OK, let's look at this realistically: The Mets have 6.5 game division lead with 10 games to play in the season (the Nats have 11 games left). Of course, they play 3 games against each other at the end of the season that everyone is sorta worrying about. But today, this thought dawned on me.

What it Mets and Nats played those three games this weekend and the Nats won all 3? That would still have the Mets up 3 games with 7 to go against the Reds and Phillies. See nothing to worry about.

Actually, there is.
