The days when things weren't in symmetry...

I guess it wasn't as easy to make up rainouts and games that couldn't continue after dark back in the days of trains but still I never realized they actually had pennant winners with uneven # of games, other than 1972 when one of the first strikes cost the Red Sox (they were 85-70, the Tigers were 86-70 and the extra game never got made up).

Big 3 game series vs the nats

Stroman vs Strat
Thor vs Corbin
deGrom vs. Sanchez

And then another big 3 vs the Braves

If we can go 3-3 .. I’ll actually feel pretty good. 4-2 I would be pretty thrilled

The whole schedule is pretty relentlessly tough from this point .. until the last 2 weeks -

Colorado for 3
Cincinnati for 3
Miami for 4

And then Atlanta for 3 to finish the season but if they have the division sewn up they might hold back some starters

So if we can be at 80-69.. and go 9-4 in those final 13 .. 89 wins should be enough to take a wild card spot

Phillies down 4-0 in the 6th.

Mets are close to being half of a game out of the wild card.

The Phillies lost; the Mets are 0.5 games out of the wildcard.

There's Vargas helping us out once again

Sometimes the best trades you make are the ones where you trojan horse your divisional rivals :twisted:

Not to get too off topic, but the one that seemed most wrong was what happened to the Reds in 1981 during the strike shortened season. Best record in baseball but didn't make the playoffs.

They split the halfs like minor league ball and let the two winners of each half make the playoffs. I think that was Seaver's final Cy Young season too.
