Diamondbacks Control Their Wild Card Fate | St. Louis Cardinals News

The Diamondbacks are in full playoff mode, locked in a tense Wild Card race with the Cardinals and Pirates—and they’re not waiting for luck. With control over their own destiny, they need to win key series: two out of three against the Pirates, three out of four against the Cardinals, and sweep the Marlins. Upcoming matchups against the Rockies, A’s, and Royals offer easier paths to victory, and their recent road sweep of the Dodgers proves they can compete with anyone. The Cardinals series showed promise—two wins, one close loss—with a crucial home series looming. With better defense, a solid bullpen, and favorable pitching matchups, the Diamondbacks hold a slight edge despite the Cardinals’ offensive strength. These games could decide whether they’re buyers or sellers at the deadline—and whether they make the postseason. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
