The wild card kind of ruins everything, if you ask me.
If you made me choose right now, I'd pick the Guardians and the Dodgers in the World Series.
These analyses don't even mean anything: "Can the Mets beat the Phillies in a short series?"
Of course they can. The Rockies beat the Red Sox by 13 runs last night. The A's could beat the Phillies in a short series.
The Mets will probably make the playoffs. That's all you need. The Padres might knock off the Phillies and the Mets won't need to.
Put it this way, and this should be obvious: It's easier to win the World Series than it is to catch the Phillies.
I'd be impressed if they caught the Phillies.
MLB should get rid of the wild card and force the Mets to get serious and make some aggressive moves.
