With six games remaining, the Diamondbacks are still alive in the NL Wild Card race, but barely. Arizona sits four games behind Philadelphia for the third National League Wild Card spot.
With six games remaining in the season, the Arizona Diamondbacks trail the Philadelphia Phillies by four games for the third NL Wild Card spot. Arizona's playoff odds are projected between 3.2% and 5.8%, requiring an almost flawless finish combined with a Phillies collapse to qualify.
Arizona's most direct path requires finishing 5-1 against the Colorado Rockies and San Diego Padres while Philadelphia goes 1-5 or worse against Milwaukee and Tampa Bay. Philadelphia's upcoming series against the league-leading Brewers offers an opportunity, but any Arizona defeat severely diminishes their postseason hopes.
