Who would you rather run into in the playoffs?
I’d like the odds that in a majority of games I could beat the stuffing out of the Mets’ bullpen.

Dodgers were barely above .500 for much of the season and don’t have Johan Santana.
They have the best overall pitching staff, no doubt, but I think the Cubs have them beat SP-wise in the first three games of a series, which they don’t against New York.
Ryan Braun: He loves it.

You might think so but Zambrano hasn't been great in his last two starts
Do you really trust Dempster? I think the dodgers have a much better chance than you might think.

Oh they definitely have a good chance to knock the Cubs out, but I still would rather face them than the Mets.

Because the Brewers have more of a cushon for the bullpen,
who will probably give up a few runs.

You have no concept
Sveum can sit on his a$$ for two bad pitches, but he would never allow three bad pitches from a reliever. So now we are outside the Sveum Incompetence Zone, and it is safe to have a marginally craptacular pitcher brought in

Bill has a point
If you know that tomorrow’s starter is only going a few innings, and you’ll be relying on the bullpen tomorrow, there’s at least a reason to have CC go the extra inning.

Ok.
But with the expanded rosters, it’s not like you need everyone to be available. If you go with Gagne there, you’ll go into tomorrow with McClung, DeFilice, and Villy all fresh. If those guys plus Gallardo can’t get you to the 9th, it doesn’t matter who else you have.

by Ted Simmons Speed Camp on Sep 24, 2008 9:09 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
but you'd dip into those other pitchers if you used Gagne today
so…that’d wash out that advantage.

covered in gamethread #1
a 3 way tie results in phillies play mets
loser plays the brewers
no free rides based on records.
Although if the phillies and the mets tie (with the brewers behind) division winner determined by best head-to-head and no additional game played. If brewers finish ahead of them, they play a game between themselves to determine who gets the division crown and thus gets into the playoffs.

Should the NY Mets, Philadelphia and Milwaukee or Houston finish the season with the same winning percentage, playoff games would be played as follows:
• The Mets and the Phillies would play a one-game tiebreaker in Philadelphia on Sept. 29, with the winner being declared the division champion.
• The losing team, either the Mets or the Phillies, would then host Milwaukee or Houston for the NL wild-card berth.
I think the 4 way tie is impossible (Philly is up by 5 over the Astros I think, Philly only plays 3 more games). But I have no clue what would happen if the Mets and Brewers both collapse to Houston’s level. I guess by virtue of us losing the coin flips, we’d have to play the loser of a Mets/Astros coinflip, the winner of the Brewers game playing the winner of that coinflip?
I’m melting.

Hmm
A HOU/MIL/NYM tie would be Scenario #4 here (unless it’s been changed since 2003) since neither of the three teams could get in the playoffs other than through the wild card. The three teams’ head-to-head records would be compared and since neither of the three teams has an advantage over more than one of the other two teams (MIL beat HOU 8-7, HOU beat NYM 5-2, and NYM beat MIL 4-2), it turns to overall winning percentage within that group.
So, HOU was 12-10 (.545), MIL was 10-11 (.476) and NYM was 6-7 (.462). That means Houston would get to choose if they wanted to be Club A, B, or C in the following scenario. Milwaukee would pick one of the remaining two, and New York is stuck with whichever is left. On Day 1 of the one-game playoffs, Club A hosts Club B. The next day, Club C is the road team in a game against the winner of the Club A vs. Club B playoff. The winner of that second game wins the wild card.
Given that Houston would have to play the Cubs on Monday (due to Hurricane Ike) to end up tied with Milwaukee and New York, this would really mess up the start of the NLDS.

While I’m guessing the Cubs will try to win all of the remaining games. To me, it makes more sense (at least for first round matchups) for the Cubs to want the Brewers in there. If the Mets and Phillies both make it, the Cubs will have to face one or the other in the first round. Whereas, the Brewers winning the wild card would mean the Cubs would face the Dodgers. (IIRC)

Record-wise, the Central has seemed to dominate the West, but that just might be pre-Manny
We've got uniforms and everything, it's really great!

I still have no idea who is playing the Mets but I’m cheering like hell for whoever is playing them

I think I saw that guy
at a Brewers game this summer, intensely cheering on jeff suppan after he gave up 6 runs in the 5th

I love
how the announcer just said “If the Cubs need a big hit, Ramirez is the one you want up there,” directly after Lee took all the pressure off with the go ahead RBI

nice….couldn’t find the cubs game on TV, so I settled for Karate Kid II, which isn’t a bad fall back position, come to think of it…..and then the cubs actually look like they might help out the brewers for once

I have to say
Derrek Lee is pretty awesome regardless of what team he’s on.
Ryan Braun: He loves it.

that's his way of saying he intends to make a martyr out of bob
before his slow inevitable decline into full senility.

I guess the Cubs didn’t get the memo from many of you about tanking this game.
Go NL Central indeed…
