The D-backs seem likely to make the playoffs while the last two spots are up for grabs depending on what happens in each teams last game. Cardinals would need a miracle with the run differential, while the Giants and Braves must win next week and have the Marlins, Dodgers, and Phillies all fall.What will the playoff seedings look like by Sunday, can the Braves finish strong and sneak into the playoffs with that tough rotation?
