I liked this writeup:
For Jacob deGrom, Brandon Nimmo and Seth Lugo, it was a return to the promised land. They are the last holdovers from the Mets’ most recent postseason team, the 2016 club that lasted one game.
For the likes of Pete Alonso, Jeff McNeil and Edwin Diaz, it was a fantasy becoming reality. They will play beyond the regular season for the first time.
And for everyone, it was an accomplishment worth acknowledging after 2,175 days, five changes at general manager, four at manager and one at owner.
