So the D backs are out unless either Atlanta or NY loses both? edit: "Arizona needs either the Braves or Mets to sweep Monday's doubleheader in Atlanta, which would make the D-backs the No. 6 seed in the NL field"
Now the Mets definitely have incentive to win game 2 (if they win game 1)... as they'll avoid the Padres. Great stuff.
Cardinals confirmed they’re rebuilding. Arenado, Gray, and Contreras are likely to be dealt. All 3 could help Houston.
Yep... but if they were rooting for any of these teams, you'd figured they'd want the Mets to win at least game 1 as they may have more of an incentive to win game 2 vs. what the Braves would have had if they won game 1. But still fairly unclear how the Mets will play it if this holds up.
I think if the Mets or Braves win both they will play the Padres. Arizona plays the Brewers if they get in.
Imagine needing a doubleheader on the day after the season ended to decide if you’re in the playoffs like some kind of impoverished street urchin could NOT be my team
