What’s At Stake on Monday?
When the Braves and Mets face off in a doubleheader on Monday, playoff berths will likely be obtainable for each groups. As a result of the Diamondbacks and Mets received on Sunday and the Braves misplaced, the Diamondbacks can solely attain the postseason if both the Mets or Braves sweep the doubleheader.

Arizona Diamondbacks @Dbacks
So this is the sitch:
If both the Braves or the Mets sweep their doubleheader tomorrow, the #Dbacks will make the postseason because the Nationwide League’s #6 seed and face the Brewers in Milwaukee within the Wild Card Sequence.
🤞
If the 2 groups break up, the Braves and Mets will every get in, with the Braves being the No. 5 seed and the Mets No. 6.

All video games are actually closing. Situations for the Mets are simple:
-Win two in Atlanta, get the No. 5 seed, go to San Diego for the Wild Card Sequence.
-Win one in Atlanta, get the No. 6 seed, return to Milwaukee for the WCS.
-Win zero in Atlanta, go residence for the winter.
That is not nice information for the D-Backs. The successful workforce within the first recreation of the doubleheader is not going to have a ton of motivation to win the second recreation, having already clinched a playoff berth. The higher possibility could be to relaxation starters in that case, given that they will be enjoying their first Wild Card recreation on Tuesday.
Granted, if the Mets win the primary recreation of the doubleheader, they could favor incomes the 5-seed and going through the Brewers slightly than the Padres. However would that basically be price placing their starters by way of a grueling doubleheader forward of the playoffs?
As for the way we bought right here, the Braves in main bother on Sept. 17, when a 6-5 loss to the Cincinnati Reds dropped them to 81-70 on the 12 months and two video games again of the Mets for the ultimate Wild Card berth. However down the stretch, Atlanta reeled off seven wins in its final 9 video games, whereas the Mets misplaced three in a row earlier than Sunday and the Diamondbacks have misplaced 5 of their final seven.
So it is all up for grabs on Monday. Buckle up, baseball followers—it may be a wild conclusion to the MLB common season.
