The New York Mets faced disruptions due to Hurricane Helene, which forced them to leave Atlanta and postpone their final two games against the Braves until the following Monday, contingent on weather conditions. As they head to Milwaukee, the Mets are aiming to secure a wild-card berth before their doubleheader. Sean Manaea has been a key player for the Mets, showcasing impressive performance by allowing only five runs in his last 21 innings and remaining undefeated since August 10. In contrast, the Brewers' pitcher Frankie Montas struggled in his recent outing, leading to a prediction that the Mets will prevail in their upcoming match. Meanwhile, the Chicago White Sox continue to struggle, tied with the 1962 Mets for the most losses in a season, despite a recent victory against the Angels. This context highlights the competitive nature of the MLB as teams vie for playoff positions while others face historical challenges.
