PLAYOFF STANDINGS WITH ONE GAME TO GO

 ****Please note text string where it was pointed out that Atlanta apparently does not play on Wednesday or Thursday [insert eye roll emoji].  I believe that was something that was changed, but I could have missed it I guess.  I have never heard of a team having two planned days off in a row, period.   

Playoff game dates have been adjusted and will start on Saturday instead of Friday.  The question is do we spread out game 100 over three days now instead of two?  Or do we just move game 100 to Friday only, since all teams will play that day.  I'd love to hear from any of you on the matter, but specifically interested in what Bill, Phil, and Bare have to say before I make the decision, as you'll see below.  If I don't hear from those three tomorrow (Wednesday) morning, we will spread this dead odd last game over three days.  Wednesday, Thursday (SEA, NYY, OAK), and Friday (ATL).  

*And please everyone that is playing myself, Bare, Phil, and Bill, put in a lineup and try to play spoiler.


CURRENT STANDINGS AND SCENARIOS


1.  Nate    62-37:  Win or Bare loss and will be #1 seed.  Lose AND Bare win will be #4 seed. ~280 point difference.
