Technically the Kraken aren't eliminated yet but for all practical purposes we are. Here's our only hope:
 * Kraken sweep Rattlers (82 wins)
 * ACL take 2 from the Tubeman (both teams with 82 wins)
 * Rougarou wins only 1 or are swept by the Madmen (81 or 82 wins)
Not likely, but not technically eliminated. Those three come from behind walk off losses to the Wolves will haunt us all off season.

When’s the last time competition was so good we didn’t have any 100 game winners?

In a more typical season I don't think my team would have even been in the race.

Seems that the playoffs already started.    Checking the rules a tie for playoff eligibility is resolved via game "163" or "160" in our case.  Seeding among playoff teams is done via tiebreakers.    

The fourth spot in the KML could very well see a tiebreaker at the 82, 83 or 84 win mark..  Tubemen and Lakeview with 81 wins and ACL's at 80.   If Landlubbers or the Hammers skid they too can be at the 83 or 84 win mark.   THAT will be interesting.

You're correct Dan.  I was only looking at the conference standings.  Sorry about that Brooklyn.

Also - 3 less games in our schedule compared to MLB. I know, 3 games isn’t a huge impact. But it’s something.

Having said that…
We’re going to have a 90 win team not make the playoffs. Which seems improbable given the fact that, as you stated, we won’t have a 100 win team.
