San Diego has lost 77 games so the Padres cannot win more than 85 games. San Francisco has won 100 games so San Diego cannot win the National League Western Division. The Dodgers have won 99 games so the Padres will finish behind at least one non-division winner in the National League Western Division. Milwaukee and St. Louis each have won at least 86 games so San Diego will finish behind at least one non-division winner in the National League Central Division.

The Padres no longer have a prayer. San Diego has been toastified. --Bob

The toaster could get quite a workout tomorrow. Depending on today's results, you could have a four-team playoff for two wildcard spots in the American League or various other playoff scenarios for one or two spots. You could also have a playoff between the Dodgers and Giants for the NL West championship.

..for the "privilege" of losing to the Rays in the ALDS.

If the Blue Jays can make some significant improvements in their pitching this offseason, there will be a whole lotta trouble for the rest of the AL East.That lineup is some kinda dangerous.

I don't give either team much of a chance against a rested Rays team. But...that's why we play the games.

If the RS don't make it, I'd like to see new blood like the White Sox (in spite of Tony LaRussa) get to the WS.

I am in complete agreement...well, with the exception of the "RS" part 8)

I do not care to see the Rays or Astros in the WS again for a while.
Also why I'd like to see the Brewers as the NL rep.
