    There wont be a tie. ;)

    I gotta feel that some of the dudes get a night off tonight though. Especially Utley, Shane, Feliz, and Werth. Jimmy's a horse and playing is only making him better, Ryan can always play, and Raul's already been getting days off here and there. Though they are in need of much deserved rest since about 6 of the starters have played over 155 games.

    What's even crazier is that Colorado has an outside shot of going from the last spot in the seedings to the top with their series with LA this weekend.

    Colorado has a very outside shot. The Dodgers lead the season series 12-3 against them so if there's a tie they'd get the division and the Rockies the WC like in 2005 when the Red Sox and Yanks had the same record.

    If the Rockies lose tonight, the weekend series doesn't matter.

    But if they win....now that's interesting.

    If I had to guess and this is assuming the Yankees take the longer series so they can go with only 3 starters in the first round.

    Wed: Afternoon game will be Phils and Rockies, 7 pm game Minn/Det and Yankees and 10 pm game will be Cards and Dodgers

    Thursday - Afternoon game at 4 will probably be Red Sox and Angels, Phils and Rockies will be 7 pm game and then Cards Dodgers at 10.

    Saturday game - most likely the Phils and Rockies will be the late game after the Cards and Dodgers

    Sunday - same thing as the Rockies are the westernmost most team to be hosting a game of the 4 possible games, that would probably be the late game as well.

    The Yankee games are starting an hour earlier, not sure why, maybe that's so the East Coast can see a few more innings of the late games before going to bed, though that never stopped many people before.

    and the Yankees I'm sure will take the series that starts Wednesday for the extra off day.

    lets win the 1st series for sure - huge disappointment if we lose to the Rockies. Game times suck as usual - 2 afternoon games and a 9:30 saturday night.

    I hate these afternoon games. I got tickets for Wed, but have to basically sell my soul to my boss in order to get out of here by noon. :evil:

    The most fucked up thing is they're calling for snow showers and a low of 29 on Sat. night in Denver. Fucked up.

    Haha... I know. I suppose I shouldn't complain too much. Were going through quarter-end work here, and its a busy week. Looks like I'll just put in late nights today and tomorrow!

    they need to schedule these games ahead of time - giving people barely two days notice of a 2:37 pm start is ridiculous. makes a lot of people try to scramble to juggle work commitments to get to the games or see them. I'll be listening at work.

    Also why can't they play 2 games at the same time? what is the point of starting games at 2:30 in the East when so few can watch it - if you put 2 games on at 5:00 the ratings for both games would most likely to equal to the combo of a 2:37 and 5:37 start times.

    Two words- TV contracts.

    Rich Hoffman has a nice little piece today about what MLB should do with the division round so that they get the most out of it in regards to ratings. Basically, start times are 6 and 9 and games are shown regionally instead of nationally.
