September 26, 201214 yr Right now the scenario I'm most scared of is them tying the Nats. Even that is probably unlikely, but that'd be a potentially awful situation for whoever lost the playoff for the division. That would be AWESOME!!! I mean, sucks for the two teams playing but great if you're not a fan of either team.

Even that is probably unlikely, but that'd be a potentially awful situation for whoever lost the playoff for the division. If they tied the Nats, then I assume those two would have a 1-game playoff, and the loser would then have a 1-game playoff with the other wild card team. Sems a little awkward but what can you do?

Sems a little awkward but what can you do? But that's what I'm saying, it'd be a killer. In all likelihood, that team would be throwing their #3 pitcher in the opening divisional playoff game if they made it that far after having played on two consecutive days.
September 27, 201214 yr Well at least the Braves will have home field for the one game playoff if they can't catch the nationals. They will pitch Medlen in that game.
October 2, 201214 yr My hope now is that the Nats can stay ahead of the Reds. I'd much rather face the prospect of facing the Nats should the Braves make the NLDS rather than Cincinnati. By a mile.

October 2, 201214 yr Author Why? I believe the Braves were 1-5 against the Reds this year. That might have something to do with it.
October 2, 201214 yr Author ^ That and the Nats look to me to be a team that is running out of gas. I'm just hoping the Braves can make out of this one game playoff.
October 2, 201214 yr I'm just hoping the Braves can make out of this one game playoff. I'll be supremely mad if the Braves set this record win streak whenever Medlen starts and then lose the most important game he does start. But the way it has been, with Medlen on the mound, I like Atlanta's chances.
