    I bet he has Vic catch and Diaz at 1B.

    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"

    What happens if Mets win the first game? What's in play for game 2?

    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.

    Whether the Mets are the #5 or #6 seed. Do they want to play the Brewers or the Padres?

    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.

    I think they'd be happy to make the Postseason

    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
