The Phillies are the best-equipped top two to handle a matchup with a red-hot wild-card series winner.

The Phillies advanced to the NLCS after starting in the wild card round in 2022 and 2023, so they should know what the Mets are experiencing right now.

Whether that helps the Phillies combat the Mets in the NLDS remains to be seen, but at least on paper they are prepared to handle the threat.

The NL East champions should rely on their elite pitching to silence the Mets. Wheeler held the Mets to two earned runs as of Sept. 22, Cristopher Sanchez has a 2.21 home ERA and Aaron Nola allowed just six earned runs in four postseason starts in 2023.

The Phillies have the right bats between Schwarber, Harper, Turner and Nick Castellanos to take on Lindor and Alonso.

There's no question that the Mets are a tough matchup in their current form, but the Phillies have seen it all in the last two postseasons and that should help them find their way in the NLDS.
