Mets in position as Yankees’ aces rise; Sherman highlights Dart in 3 Things I Think video
Sherman says Mets' playoff odds improve as chasers falter; Rodon, Fried carry Yankees; Jaxson Dart referenced in the same discussion.
In his latest 3 Things I Think video, Joel Sherman argues the Mets remain in strong position for a postseason berth, noting that the teams chasing them aren’t particularly formidable this season.
Sherman contends the key for the Mets this weekend is simple: just get in. With the chase tightening, even a modest run could be enough given the weakness of the competition at the moment.
On the Yankees side, Sherman highlights two veteran hurlers, Carlos Rodon and Max Fried, who have carried ace-class workloads as Gerrit Cole is lost for the 2025 season. The pair have taken turns anchoring the rotation, offering the Bombers a blueprint as they navigate the rest of the schedule.
The same video also touches on Jaxson Dart, noting that the segment includes a reference to the college quarterback in the broader conversation about talent depth across major sports.
The notes accompanying the piece indicate the discussion was published by the New York Post on Sept. 26, 2025, presenting a concise snapshot of the league’s current balance of power and the evolving roles of veteran pitchers in a changing landscape.
