NL East Tied With 3 Games Left.....National league comes down to the last Weekend

by Ackermansteven

The New York Mets and the Philadelphia Phillies are tied atop first place in the National League East. With 159 games down and 3 to go it is now down to the final series of the season for all the cabbage. The Phillies have all the momentum going into this weekend. The Phils have been red hot the month of September. While the fightin' Phils have piled up wins in the bunches the Mets have collapsed creating the Queens massacre in New York.

The Mets had a 7 game lead about 2 and 1/2 weeks ago and it is currently a tie. While the Phillies have been coming back and finding ways to win the Mets have been taking leads and finding ways to lose. Their pitching has been a huge problem with their starters E.R.A since September 13th over 4.50 and the bullpen E.R.A over 5.00. The offense up until last night was doing their job but when your bullpen gives up bunches of runs every game it's hard to win at this level.

The Phillies host the Washington Nationals this weekend at Citizens Bank Park while the New York Mets look to hang on to the NL East while they welcome the Florida Marlins to Shea Stadium for 3 games. With all the momentum the Phillies have and how bad the Mets have been playing logically you would think that the Phillies are going to win the division by saturday night. But, The New York Mets will come through and will sweep the Marlins this weekend and that is a guarantee!!!!!

Whether the Phillies stay hot this weekend or not that is a different story. Luckily in hte divison the loser may still have a chance to win the wild card. With the Padres a game up in the wild card standings and with the Rockies winners of 11 straight, Mets, and Phils just a game back it's anybodys race. The National League dosen't have a single playoff team with a birth yet while the American League teams have nothing to play for this weekend. This will be a fun weekend for National league baseball fans sure to make you mad, make you feel great, and sure to make your heart palpatate a little and make you bite your nails just a little.
