Re: Rank the Mets\' collapse
According to Baseball Prospectus, if the Mets complete the collapse it would be the 2nd worst in baseball history from a pure probabilistic viewpoint.

Re: Rank the Mets\' collapse
Top 4-5 all time, the 78' Red Sox and the 64' Phillies certainly qualify. Throw in the 95' Angels for good measure.

[/ QUOTE ] While you can never be that confident in the Phils, the Mets collapse with a 7-game lead this late in the season would be a record. And some of those losses have been painfully ugly, like the collapse last night. Not nearly anything as 'unlucky' as raw rookie Chico Ruiz stealing home in a tie game with *** Frank Robinson *** at the plate. The Phils also lost a game right before that one on a steal of home in the 16th inning, 4-3. How painful those two must have been in such a short time span is hard to imagine. |

Then having Wagner give up two more in the top of the ninth really sucked. |

[/ QUOTE ] This is worse than Red Sox or Phils, lead was bigger with 17 to play and 4 teams make NL playoffs this year, not 2. Even with 2 extra slots they are still in danger of choking it away. |

So recent times are leading to more ridiculous collapses, being like 20 games over 500 early means you're 90% to get it and whatnot. |

Re: Rank the Mets\' collapse
This collapse is epic. I hated listening to those [censored] Met fans bury the Yanks all summer long on talk radio. They seem to forget the season is 162 games long. I have resisted posting on the 2007 NL East MY Mets thread until its official. My Entire Team Sucks. LOL

Yeah, that makes sense. |
