Atlanta Braves: Win More Games Than The Hawks? - Page 202 - Single-Team Season Threads -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

It is really hard to speculate how any of those teams not fighting for a playoff spot (or perhaps, positioning w/i the playoffs) will get up for the last few games. There may not be much difference, if any, between fish/nats/cards/dbacks/dodgers/cubs all having absolutely nothing to play for. throw in cincy who is locked in at a 2/3 seed too.

SD: 4.3%
Col: 2.9%
SF: 3.1%

Total: 10.3%

These are my rough estimates of the chances that:

-We end up tied with one and only one opponent
-The team we tie did not win their division
-There is no other team in front of us in the WC

But then again, the only way they can be a lock to avoid the Phils is to be second in win%.

I would guess they will be up for it in light of all that.

****ing christ why would you ever throw him a slider..a fastball is so much tougher to get a bunt down on

especially on 0-2 at least try a couple high fastballs first
