I feel like a Mets fan immediately after their 2015 season ended (a World Series loss). Telling myself "it's not that big of a deal, our future remains very bright, we still have Harvey, Degrom, Syndergaard and Matz locked into our rotation, all in their primes, all locked up, all coming into 2016 healthy...."
But knowing the Mets haven't sniffed the grand prize since then, knowing how fast your championship window can close, with no warning, no provocation....I'm despondent.
Then it occurred to me that the Mets at least knew their players were done playing that season after they lost. Our (key) players have one more game to stay healthy through: the damn pro bowl. So in addition to despondent, I'm nervous about injury.
