The road to SHaMbala
It's late notice but lets have some predictions for the Second Half Mets aka SHaMs.
Re: The road to SHaMbala
They've got a tough road ahead. 23 games in the next 24 days. A rough September, and a harder schedule (strength of opponent wise) than virtually all of the other NL playoff contenders. I'm not optimistic but I hope I am wrong.
Re: The road to SHaMbala
As presently constituted, I don't think the team can keep their current level going.
If you ask this after the trading deadline, I might be more optimistic.

I picked the option to get them to 88 wins. That's not as good as June-July and a lot better than April-May

Re: The road to SHaMbala
I went with the 36-31 second half. Hopefully, Senga can return and be a reasonable facsimile of last season and they can acquire some bullpen help before the deadline, then I am optimistic they can do well. Otherwise I feel they are essentially a .500 (or faintly better) team.
When did the choices get so hard
With so much more at stake
Life gets mighty precious
When there's less of it to waste
