By Sahir Bhojwani Modified 15 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share David Peterson looks on as manager Buck Showalter walks out to remove him from a game against the Chicago Cubs at Citi Field. The New York Mets are choking at a critical stage of the season. The team that many predicted to win the National League East was just swept by the Chicago Cubs. Yes, the Chicago Cubs. The Mets started Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom, Chris Bassitt and David Peterson in those three games and somehow lost all of them. The story of this season is a script we have all read before. The Mets start strong, then fade away into oblivion once they reach the business end of the season. For Mets fans, it's the hope that kills them. They must be wondering how they could have let themselves believe in this team. With the New York Mets, it's never easy.
