MIAMI — Mets owner Steve Cohen came down from Greenwich or Boca or somewhere extremely nice to slum with his $340M baseball investment gone wrong.
Technically, the 2025 Mets are still very much alive in one of the most sorry wild-card races on record, even after doing nothing especially well again while losing 6-2 to the Marlins in South Florida.
With the biggest loss of the fading year, the Mets fell into an unhappy tie for the sixth wild-card spot. The Reds, who beat the Brewers 3-1, hold the tiebreaker over the Mets by virtue of their head-to-head record. So as of today, the Mets would be out.
“We put ourselves in this position. Here we are,” Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said. “We’ve got to come back tomorrow and the next. We’ve got to win the next two, and see what happens.”
