This New York Mets season has been a bit of a roller coaster ride, with the team holding a tight grip on first place for a majority of the season early on, and then falling to multiple games behind in the division in the month of August.
As of late, the Mets have been as good as ever, pouring on 13 runs in a recent game against the gutted Washington Nationals.
