Power Rankings

Washington is lighting it up this week whereas Philly is stinking meaning they are likely to swap positions next week.

Milwaukee = 724.87
Pittsburgh = 510.13
Atlanta = 412.35
Houston = 320.85

This may turn into a non-discussion with St. Louis, Philly, L.A., Washington, and Milwaukee making the playoffs.  The Brewers are surging and someone needs to catch them or this race will be over within a couple weeks.

Ruiz, Cuddyer, and Berkman all go to the DL.  Same thing happened to me last year.  All my guys got hurt as the playoffs approach.  It was a very disappointing year for my Phils.

I am fairly busy... What do your playoff races look like?

im quite pissed.. i was feeling good going into sunday, looking like i was going to go 6-2.... idk what happened

The American League is fairly locked up with New York, Boston, Oakland, Texas, and Cleveland.

The National League has St. Louis, Philly, Washington, and Los Angeles fairly safe with Milwaukee, Houston, Pittsburgh, and Atlanta competing for that second wildcard spot.

[Brewers GM]

Brewers off to a rough start, looking like they'll fall back and concede the current narrow lead...

Halfway through Week 19
Pirates going 6-2
Astros going 3-5
Brewers going 0-8
Braves going 8-0
Nationals going 5-3
Phillies going 0-8

Wow... I would love for the week to end now.  It would really shake things up with the possible standings being..

NL Wildcard #2
Houston 85-67
Pittsburgh 85-67
Milwaukee 84-68
Atlanta 84-68

NL East / NL Wildcard #1
Washington 101-51
Philly 98-54

I am hoping that the Buccos can close out these last two weeks red hot and make the playoffs with a 93-95 base-win season.  Note that the standings will still go through a realistic W/L adjustment to all teams, so that will likely show as a high 80's win result.

haha that would be great if the week ended now it would make up for last week nicely

[Dan Wood]

Couple of playoff teams have pulled a Reds-esque choke this week, and look to be going 0-8. Nobody has choked worse than my collection of players, but it is good to see I won't be alone.

[Brewers GM]

Brewers with a major choke last week, own destiny no longer in our hands. Race to the finish!!!
