Between now and the end of the season, all the Nats have to do earn a wild card birth is win 4 games more than Houston and 3 games more than the Phillies and Marlins. We're three back in the loss column against the Astros and two game down on Florida and Philadelphia.
On the weekend the Marlins play the Phillies, while Houston host the Brewers. and to start the week the Marlins play the Mets, the Phillies the Braves and the Astros play the Pirates. Ideally, the Phillies win against the Marlins this weekend, The Brewers best the Astros, and to start the week, the Mets, Braves and the Pirates need to bring their A games to the ballpark. The Nats will need to do their share of winning during that time as well...
Its gonna be interesting...
