Actually we have to win 1 game to have any chance ... the Cubs play one more game than us, but are 2 up in the loss column. Hey I'll take a 1-5 finish if the Cubs finish 0-7 ... AND the Giants go 0-6 .... AND the Padres go 1-5
Don't forget to root against L.A. the next few days. #1) If the Giants win their next few and L.A. loses against Colorado, the Dodgers will have a bigger incentive to beat the Giants on the last weekend. Of course, there's no love lost between the two teams, but who knows what the L.A. manager will do as far as benchings. #2) If by freak chance, L.A. loses almost all of their games, then we might be able to nudge them out of the wildcard if the Giants go on a tear.
I don't know about that. I don't want there to be another team in the picture. Also, We are talking about the Dodgers against the Giants. They don't like each other. LA could be 159-0 going into this series and they would still want to kill the Giants. Much like the Cards have always taken the "Anyone but the Cubs" stance, there is no way the Dodgers lay down to the Giants. I see a sweep. I do think that the Cards have absolutely nothing left to play for and will do just enough to stay in the game. They won't be trying to turn doubles into triples or anything like that. As long as the Astros can maintain their cool and just try to play like then have over the last month and a half, there is no reason we can't win out.
what is the criteria of the bet again? is it affected by the astros making the playoffs?? i'll add something to my sig if lose the bet. i'll pay up. of course, we could double or nothing if the astros and braves meet in the first round!

Son: "Bullpen...what is it?" Father: "It's a place where you yell obscenities at the opposing pitchers but that's not important now." Okay...enough with the "Airplane" quotes. Go Stros! Do or die!!!
Chavez singles home another run 3-0 The offense looks to be picking up again, cubs have a 2-0 advantage on Cincy though
