Going into the final two weeks of the season, the playoff teams are pretty well set with exception of the AL East and the 2nd Wild Card spot in the American League.
The race between the
and the
is deadlocked, so each team controls their own destiny. The
holds a two game lead for the 2nd Wild Card spot, so it?s conceivable that a stumble on the
part could lead to them falling out of the Wild Card matchup in favor of either
or
but I?m sure the
will do all they can to guard against a disastrous letdown. It could come down to the tiebreakers of H2H matchups or total points scored. Those tiebreakers will be posted at the end of this week.
In both the American League and the National League, the dominant teams seem to be in the West. As it currently stands, the playoffs will feature three teams from the AL West and three teams from the NL West.
The

have had a strong season too and sits atop the overall standings as the #2 seed and #1 in the National League.
Stay tuned for more updates as the playoff picture sharpens into focus.

105-49 AL Wild Card #2
The AL East race between
and
is no longer a tie.
now has a 1 game lead as
finds itself with a record of 102-52. Since
has possession of the H2H tiebreaker,
must win 2 more games than
in this final week to win the AL East.
With a record of 105-49,
enjoys a 3 game lead over the
and a 2 game lead over the
The
also has a favorable schedule during this final week of the season. Two game matchups with
and
? all non-playoff teams.
At the moment, unless something unforeseen happens, the AL Wild Card matchup will be between #4
and #5
The ALDS will feature:
Wild Card Winner vs #1
#3

In the National League, the playoff picture is a lot clearer
and

also plays the
and
other games during this final week are against

As it stands, the NL playoff picture is as follows:
Wild Card matchup:

Update on the Road to the Playoffs:
As of today, Thursday, August 19th, things are looking bleak for the
Now we all know things can dramatically change if a team?s hitters get hot, or your opponents? hitters go 0 for forever, but as of today, the
is on the short end of all 8 matchups, most by a considerable margin. At the same time
is in the lead of all 8 matchups. In order for
to get bumped from the Wild Card spot, the
must come out 4 games ahead of
to move into at least a tie and get the nod because of their advantage in the H2H matchups.
Four more days of baseball and we?ll know who enters into the playoffs as the AL East winner and the Wild Card matchup as the #5 seed. Should be interesting.

Saturday, August 21st prior to today?s games, here?s the update:
It looks like
will enter the playoffs with the AL East crown. With the exception of their two game set with the
- where the
hold a 60 point lead, the
enjoy comfortable leads in their three other two game matchups.
The
also lead each of their four two game series, with the closest being a 86 point margin over the
looks poised to enter the playoffs as the #5 seed and will play next week in a Wild Card matchup with the
.
Finally, the
are on the outside looking in. The Bronx Bombers have fallen behind in all their games. As we all know, there are times when our opponents catch fire and such is the case with two of the
opponents: the
and the
.
Two days of fantasy play in the regular season and the playoffs seem to have taken form. Final update after tomorrow?s games.

Take two to tango, though. Most owners with adequate or surplus SP aren't interested in prospects as they're trying to win now.

Agreed. But most does not equal all.

My issue in LIVE currently is having Strider/Alcantara/Giolito all on the long shelf, so I am more retooling than rebuilding

Also agreed. Top quality pitching probably means not much depth. A few injuries can challenge you. Pitching other than top end pitching has been devalued in fantasy. Everyone wants the stud.

I here to tell you that ALL major league pitching is good pitching. A great hitter beats a terrible pitcher just 3 out of 10 times. Which means the worst pitchers > the greatest hitters.

Greg Maddux had the best outlook. He viewed himself as tye dealer/house and you had to beat him. Just like in the casino, the house nearly always wins.

He had that view b/c of his father who was a blackjack dealer in Vegas.

Yes @Brent!! That is it exactly. Pitching is the house & it always wins in the end.

The problem with the minors is not the system as a whole, it is some Farm Systems are more 'elite' at being able to produce talent than others. If you look across MLB teams you can pretty easily tell the great systems from the weaker systems and talent development

With regard to pitching in the Minors...there is method to the madness. It is all about what you make of it tho. I agree that it can seem certain type arms in the minors are a dime a dozen

Mr Braves you are my guy. There isnt anything wrong with minor league studs or flops. I get it in REAL baseball.

This is fantasy baseball. We dont generate revenue selling prospects and merchandising. Our top farms dont get a write up in Sports Illustrated.
