We are now down to the last week, and we have no more idea as to who will be the Dodgers Wild Card opponent today than we had at the beginning of the season. Because the 2nd place teams in the Central and Eastern Divisions are relatively close, there are six teams that could fall to the #8 seed. Only two NL teams have actually clinched a spot in the playoffs; Dodgers and Padres. Although the Braves and Cubs are almost assured.
- NL West – San Francisco
- NL Central – Cardinals, Reds, Brewers
- NL East – Marlins, Phillies
I would include the Mets, but they are 2.
