In the first season of a Mets save that I had, we won 100 games (Very interesting season. I'm using the updated September 2017 Roster. Stanton had 69 HRs, Judge had 61 HRs, deGrom was 8 K's short of a Triple Crown. I'm telling you, it was weird) and we made the NLCS. We went up 3-1, and we even got to Kershaw, which left me dreaming of a pennant. But, being that this is the Mets, we got crushed in Game 5 by a score of 7-0; then the series shifted to LA. We went down 8-0 through 6, and we had a 6 run 7th. False hope, cause Cody Bellinger hit a grand slam, and we went on to lose. Then came Game 7. The Mets fan in me wanted not to lose, and as the boss of the Mets in this save, I didn't want them to lose. We couldn't get anything going, and we lost 4-0 in Game 7 (Corey Seager hit a couple of 2 RBI doubles, and was named NLCS MVP), and the Dodgers won the pennant (they went on to lose the World Series in 5 to the Astros, where, just like IRL, George Springer was named World Series MVP). So yeah, even OOTP gives no love to the Mets.
