1 game playoffs are based on the head to head series.

I believe the Cardinals won the head to head series 5-1.

this. really if you think about it, they can't win every year....
Well, they have only won the division 1 of the last 4 years, so I wouldn't exactly call that winning every year.

Now that's optimism! Nobody said being a fan of a team required any sort of logic at all.

I think if we go 6-2 or better we are going to play more than 162 this year.
I don't think it's illogical to phathom at least the chance of them winning 9 in a row (8 now) against the stros/cubs/mets.

It's not likely, but teams have gone on insanely hot streaks in the past coming down the stretch when the goal is in sight. These aren't the dog days of summer and they're certainly not going to have a 'throw away' lineup like they do in July after winning the first 2.
I'm talking about how you said we control our own destiny. By definition we do not. But that's ok, your a fan of a team closing ground and logic be damned. I love it.

You and your [expletive] definitions! I refuse to believe if they win out there will even be the need for a 1 game playoff. Game 163 will be in Philly.

Atl: 6 games left, 88 wins

Stl: 7 games left, 86 wins

If stl goes 6-1 (92 wins), Atl needs to go 3-3 (91 wins) for us to get in (or 4-2 to force a playoff)

Cards:
1 vs Nym
3 vs Chi
3 @ Hou

Atlanta:
3 @ Was
3 vs Phi

I'm dumbfounded by this run. Happy and dumbfounded. I can't believe the Braves lost 2 of 3 against Fla again. Incredible.
