The Put up’s specialists make their Mets-Padres NL wild-card picks:
Jon Heyman
The Mets and Padres are comparable groups, however the Mets look only a bit higher. Whereas San Diego additionally has a stellar rotation prime, it’s laborious to choose towards the Mets’ Max Scherzer-led group. METS IN 3
Greg Joyce
Jacob deGrom, Scherzer and Chris Bassitt — to not point out the Mets’ star bats — all had main letdowns final weekend in Atlanta. No approach that occurs for a second straight high-stakes sequence … proper? METS IN 3
Dan Martin
The Mets’ failure to win the NL East has made their playoff highway harder, however they nonetheless have sufficient pitching to get by San Diego. METS IN 3
Ian O’Connor
San Diego’s 4-2 regular-season sequence victory, mixed with Yu Darvish’s mastery of the Mets, offers me some pause. However the Mets received 101 video games — 12 greater than the Padres — for a motive, and taking part in all three video games at Citi Discipline shall be a difference-maker. METS IN 3
Mike Puma
The Mets get their huge rotation weapons rolling once more and discover a few key hits. METS IN 3
Mark W. Sanchez
The Padres would have been a tough matchup even when Starling Marte have been wholesome. With out Marte, the Mets’ offense will proceed to battle towards top-tier pitching. Runs for each groups shall be scarce. PADRES IN 3.
Joel Sherman
The Padres have a starter duo in Darvish/Blake Snell that may match Mets aces deGrom/Scherzer. Nonetheless, I believe the Mets are the higher general group and have performed that approach this yr. METS IN 3
Mike Vaccaro
The Mets misplaced their mojo towards the dregs in September, however outdoors of the ultimate sequence in Atlanta they’ve been at their greatest each time they’ve wanted to be. METS IN 3
