Would be nice if Mets could win tonight and MN is 5 to both Was and Phi heading into Thursday. Nats MN might be 6 but not 100 percent sure. Just hoping for a split this weekend, dont know how they get it, but just split.

Freeman might be heating up just in time to win the NL MVP.
I just saw the replay of Freddie's stolen base...what the heck took them so long...the 2nd baseman dropped the ball...it's like they were trying to find a way to make the out call stand.
I expect us to clinch this weekend or early next week. I hope we take three of four against Philly to clinch on the field. I don't want a MN of one going into our off-day Monday as I expect Colorado to probably beat Philly Monday and do not want to clinch on our off day. I want to be able to watch the boys celebrate on the field after a win. Hopefully if we split with Philly we clinch by beating the Mets on Tues.
Probable starters for the Phillies series
Thursday: Gausman vs Velasquez
Friday: Teheran vs Pivetta
Saturday: Newcomb vs Arrieta
Sunday: Foltynewicz vs TBD
I think we split against the phillies and clinch against the mets
phillies up 3-0 so looks like they'll win
Yelich is at 6 fWAR which is tops in the NL. It's his and rightfully so.
I know they're not mine to give up, but I'd happily trade ROY and MVP for advancing to the NLCS. Pretty sure Freddie and Ronald would too.
