The two teams are obviously very different, other than having terrible bullpens, but it is fun to note that after 50 games, the 2019 Nationals were 19-31, while the 2024 Mets were 21-29, and the Mets are currently 41-41, exactly the same as those Nats were after 82 games. And they have a fairly soft schedule through July 22. While their own pitching is obviously a problem, the Mets have beaten up on tough pitching, as their adjusted (third-order) Pythag numbers indicate. In the FWIW department, they have the league’s 8th-best BaseRuns record, at 45-37, virtually tied with the Twins, and ahead of-in order-the Mariners, Astros, Royals, Guardians, and Padres, and pretty darned close to the Brewers, Yankees, and Atlanta. It’s not necessarily predictive, but they’ve been underperforming their BaseRuns and adjusted Pythag all along, so perhaps they are a legit contender, and should improve their pitching before it has a chance to torpedo their season.
