    Nats are on life support right now. 6 games back of the 2nd wild card is technically doable with a little over a month left. But they'd have to get crazy hot while the 6 teams in front of them all played .500 baseball. Aside from an 02 Athletics type of winning streak, they're toast.

    They are not going to jump 6 teams. Their season is toast. Especially with their pen being putrid.

    A's back 1 game. There's a realistic chance we see Astros vs Yankees in AL WC game. This would be awesome.

    Phils have activated Wilson Ramos. That should give their offense a little boost.

    For us this is ideal. The Yankees, Red Sox, and Astros are clearly better than us. If my scenario plays out, 2 of the 3 are gone after divisional round

    I’m not willing to fully discount them until they’re mathematically eliminated; but I hope so.

    our 7 day delta on playoff odds at BP is 25% to 81%. BP has liked us better than the other projection systems all year and now has our odds of winning the WS at 8%. Average outcomes of their simulations have us finishing at 90 wins.

    Nats-Phillies seems slightly slanted towards the Nats in the pitching matchups:

    Velaquez v Roark
    Eflin v. Strasburg
    Nola v. Scherzer (hell of a matchup)

    be the spoiler, Nats.
