Phightins Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) Helping out our good friend Cobb. Anyway, only 2 games that really mean much of anything on the schedule today (obviously the Yankees and Rays still need to figure out who wins that division). Anyway, this is the rare time where I actually wouldn't mind if the Phillies lose. I'd love to see a 3-way tie unfold. And Charlie Manuel did his best to make sure this happens by allowing Danys Baez to pitch! Giants-Padres on tap for 4:00 EST this afternoon. I am probably part of the .000000000001% of people in this region that cares more about that than McNabb-gate. Lets go!!

Lkr Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 So what are the scenarios? I want to see the Padres AND Giants make the playoffs, but I thought the only way that could happen was if the Phillies won today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phightins Posted October 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) So what are the scenarios? I want to see the Padres AND Giants make the playoffs, but I thought the only way that could happen was if the Phillies won today. If the Phillies win (looking unlikely now) and Padres win, then the Braves are eliminated, and the Giants and Padres would be tied for the NL West. There would be no tie-breaker game since the Giants and Padres would both be in the postseason anyway, so due to head-to-head record, the Padres would win the division and the Giants would get the wild card. If the Phillies win and Giants win, the Giants get the NL West, and the Padres and Braves would play a one game playoff tomorrow in Atlanta for the Wild Card. If the Braves and Giants win, the Giants win the NL West and the Braves win the wild card, and the Padres are eliminated. If the Braves and Padres win, then we have by far the coolest scenario. There would be a 3-way tie between the Giants, Padres and Braves. The Giants and Padres would play a one-game playoff tomorrow in San Diego, winner takes NL West and loser flies to Atlanta to play the Braves in a one-game playoff for the wild card on Tuesday. I think that covers basically everything. Edited October 3, 2010 by Phightins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phightins Posted October 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Nothing against Jason Heyward, but I'd be voting Buster Posey for NLROY if I had a choice. He probably just ended this NL playoff discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
