Just got the game and thought it might be interesting to see how the pennant races panned out with the new 2009 rosters. Results:
The Mets had a nice 6.5 game lead in early September and actually didnt collapse this time. Must be the additions of Krod and Putz. Not surprisingly the Cubs and Aaron Heilman had a losing record. lol
The Mets faced the Yankees in the Series and the Yanks won in 7........
An interesting tidbit:
