That's kind of assuming the game doesn't go past four, the Rockies don't mount some sort of bizarre comeback and flip a few games (e.g., run Beckett in game 5), etc. I think that's a valid assumption, but I wanted to point out that #6 and on might have more than just game 4 to catch up to Dre17. :-) BTW, been reading the blog now for only a couple of weeks. You guys do a fantastic job of teasing meaning from the numbers, and I love the posts. Great work! "[A]nybody not in the top 5 has a fairly poor shot at winning the whole enchilada."
