Not sure why you'd want to "rest" your starters when they won't start the playoffs until Wednesday or Thursday.  When spring training ends and teams head back home for the final weekend, they all schedule exhibitions that weekend so that they don't lose their edge.  Unless you're talking starting pitching, taking today off would do more harm than good IMO for the Phillies.

3 Teams, 2 NL Playoff Spots up for Grabs

Three teams, two NL playoff spots open, one day left in the regular season. A look at the NL West and wild-card scenarios as the San Francisco Giants (91-69), San Diego Padres (90-71) and Atlanta Braves (90-71) head into Sunday's games:

If the Giants beat the Padres on Sunday, San Francisco is the NL West champion. If the Giants win and Atlanta beats Philadelphia, the Braves win the wild card.

If the Giants win and the Braves lose, San Diego and Atlanta tie for the wild card. There would be a one-game tiebreaker Monday in Atlanta for the wild card.

If the Padres win and the Braves lose, San Diego wins the NL West and San Francisco gets the wild card. The Braves would be eliminated. The Padres get the division title because they won the season series against the Giants.

If the Padres win and the Braves win, San Diego, San Francisco and Atlanta all finish 91-71. The Giants and Padres would play a one-game tiebreaker for the NL West title Monday night in San Diego. The loser would then go to Atlanta for a one-game playoff for the wild card on Tuesday night (the Braves would host either the Padres or Giants because Atlanta won the season series against both teams).

Can someone please explain to me why most people are on the Browns and Ravens?  It's crazy why there is so much love for them in the forums right now.  I like SD but just can't pull the trigger for some reason.  SD should come out mad and trounce them.

I thought of you and 53% when I was going to put that Texas wager in and said to myself, just stay away .

I'm a Phillies fan and live here in philly so I would just like to add a view points. First Charlie Manuel has already said that Cole Hamels would only pitch 2 innings to get him ready for the post season, with Roy Oswalt following him sometime today. As far as we have something to play for: We are not playing all of our regulars today, but saying that doesn't really mean much as our backup's as shown this past week are better than a few MLB's Teams (Pittsburgh). Every team goes into a game trying to win a game, but we probably won't play this like life or death. I wouldn't expect let's say our catcher Carlos Ruiz to come in if the bases loaded and pinch hit for Schenider if he was 0-5. Finally we really don't care who we played, I heard someone say we would trying hard to win in order to avoid playing the Reds. You guys are joking right? The Reds would be swept by us, I think they are the 4th best team in the National League. It goes Phillies, SF, San Diego, then Reds.

If CISCO's scenarios are correct above, seems like their would be MORE PRESSURE on SD.

If ATL wins, SD is o u t if they lose....that is pressure!

If ATL loses, SF is i n no matter what happens......while SD is facing a playoff game if they lose!

I guess you are talking about SF blowing 3 games in a row!!

But, for just today, the Gaints have the "pressure advantage"

This is true.  Why wouldn't you want to play the Reds in the playoffs?  Bronson Arroyo as your ace?  I thought he retired 5 years ago, lol
