With Wild Card on the Line, Mets Clash with Brewers

The New York Mets find themselves in a precarious position as they face the Milwaukee Brewers in the regular-season finale on Sunday afternoon. Their playoff fate hangs in the balance, as they need to win all their remaining games to clinch a wild-card spot in the National League. However, standing in their way are the red-hot Brewers, who have already taken the first two games of this crucial series.

Current Playoff Picture

The Mets (87-72) have hit a rough patch at the worst possible time, losing their past three games, including the first two of this series against the Brewers. Saturday’s 6-0 loss saw six Milwaukee pitchers combine on a two-hit shutout, pushing the Mets further back in the wild-card race. The Brewers (93-68), having already secured the NL Central title and the No. 3 seed, are gearing up for a wild-card series beginning on Tuesday.

Currently, the Mets are a game behind the Atlanta Braves for the second NL wild-card spot and tied with the Arizona Diamondbacks (88-73) for the final spot. The Braves (88-71) won against the Kansas City Royals on Saturday night, while Arizona fell to the San Diego Padres. This outcome left the Mets with little room for error; winning on Sunday is essential to keep their postseason hopes alive.

“Not winning the past couple of days is putting us in a difficult situation,” said Mets manager Carlos Mendoza on Saturday night. “But we have to come back tomorrow, and we have to win the game tomorrow. That’s the bottom line. And then see where we are at the end of the day tomorrow and then go to Atlanta and see what we’ve got.”

Pitching Matchup: David Peterson vs. Colin Rea

The Mets are sending left-hander David Peterson (9-3, 3.08 ERA) to the mound for Sunday’s do-or-die game. Peterson has been solid recently, posting a 3.14 ERA over his past seven starts, although he struggled in his last outing on September 20, allowing five runs (four earned) in just 3 2/3 innings during a 12-2 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies. Historically, Peterson has not fared well against Milwaukee, with a 1-1 record and a 6.14 ERA in four career appearances (three starts).

The Brewers will counter with right-hander Colin Rea (12-5, 4.17 ERA), who has had an up-and-down season. While Rea was consistent through much of the year, he has stumbled lately, posting an 8.44 ERA in five appearances (three starts) this month. His struggles were highlighted by a rough start on September 11, when he allowed ten runs in four innings in a loss to the San Francisco Giants. However, Rea has performed well against the Mets in his career, boasting a 3-0 record with
