    Wow, wow, wow.

    The NL central and the west are both dead even on the last day! All games start at 2-ish today.

    After yesterday's 2-homer game, Yelich has a shot at the triple crown! No NL player has hit for a league triple crown since 1937.

    I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.

    Although, the idea of a Cubs vs Dodgers wildcard game is pretty funny. {still possible}
    I wasn't THAT far off.

    So the two games today are tiebreakers and are afternoon games?

    Yes and yes.

    Probably afternoon games to give the teams the most 'rest' time possible before the next round starts.

    Cubs/Brewers @ Noon CST in Chicago
    Dodgers/Rockies @ 3pm CST in LA

    Losers play again Tuesday night in the wildcard game. Winner of the wildcard game plays the winner of today's Cubs/Brewers game in the NLDS Thursday.

    It will be interesting to see the strategies by the teams today. Do you burn the bullpen to win? If you do and lose, you're screwed for the elimination game the next night.

    Or if you go down early, do you concede, and go full out the next night?

    No idea what to expect.

    As a Chicago fan, of course I want to the Cubs to do well. But as a baseball fan, I am also cheering for the Brewers (never won), Rockies (never won), Indians (1948), and the A's (great underdog over-achievement).

    Brewers haven't even been to the World Series since 1982, so they are definitely due. I can't get behind the A's though, they've won their share of titles and I hate the whole 'sabremetrics' BS.
