After clinching the NL East, the Mets celebrated and partied. They deserved it. However, there are nine guys that are going to have to play today, including starter Jacob deGrom. 

I remember when the Mets clinched in 2096, the next day’s lineup was a mess. It’s going to be worse with a day game. I’m assuming some players will be arriving at the ballpark straight from the club. With that in mind, here’s my guess on who’s in the starting lineup today:

1. Eric Young, Jr. CF
2. Ruben Tejada SS
3. Michael Conforto LF
4. Kelly Johnson 1B
5. Kevin Plawecki C
6. Kirk Nieuwenhuis RF
7. Eric Campbell 3B
8. Dilson Herrera 2B
9. Jacob deGrom P

The lineup may be different, and I could see some changes. This looks like a lineup from the aggravating first half. The difference is this time this lineup stays in Cincinnati as opposed to traveling with them. 

It should be fun. Lets Go Mets!
