Marlins' Postseason Hopes End After Phillies Loss Amid Mets' Wild Card Pursuit

News summary

The New York Mets enter their final three games of the regular MLB season needing wins to secure the last National League Wild Card spot, currently holding a narrow lead over the Reds and Diamondbacks. They face the Miami Marlins in a crucial series, where the Mets' pitching staff is stretched thin due to heavy recent use, with manager Carlos Mendoza indicating the team will rely on all available pitchers. The Marlins, having been predicted to finish last and with only a slim playoff chance, have surprised many with a strong late-season surge despite injuries and a youthful roster, but were officially eliminated from postseason contention after a loss to the Phillies. Miami's season has been marked by resilience, including two significant winning streaks, though recent heavy losses have dimmed their playoff hopes. Despite elimination, the Marlins could still spoil the Mets' postseason chances in their upcoming series, continuing a history of impacting New York's playoff hopes. Overall, the Mets' postseason fate hangs in the balance against a Marlins team that, while out of contention, remains competitive and capable of influencing the playoff race.
