A couple of housekeeping items

1) I've seen a number of mentions that would indicate people aren't seeing my tweets. I don't want to be that guy, but the only way I know to fix it is turn notifications on.

Taking 38 off your Magic Number before play starts in May is kinda crazy though.

[Braves Magic Number @AtlMagicNumber]

Long way to go. Update for the start of May.

Second time in 3 years the Braves don't play on opening day and I can't really decide when to send the 163 post

@CubsMagicNumber @MNTwinsMagic @BJMagicNumber @Astros_MN @KCMagicNumber @ClevelandMagic @NYMetsMagicNum @MagicPhillies @RangersMagicNum @DodgersMagic @azdbmagicnumber @BrewersMagicNum Thanks! First time getting the opening day post from you after our teams played each other in Spring Training! But I know that's far from the weirdest thing for your team schedule to start the season. Good luck the rest of the way!

Sorry folks I've been having internet troubles.

Diamondbacks lose.

Here is your primer for every scenario that can happen in the National League today and the outcome. Currently, a Mets-Braves doubleheader is scheduled for Atlanta on Monday. Important to note: It’s unlikely that a game Monday that would affect seeding only would be played, though MLB still has yet to make that official, according to sources.

Scenario 1: Braves win, Mets win, Diamondbacks win

Outcome: Braves are in and at least one game is necessary Monday. If the Mets win the first game, they are in — and would be tied with Atlanta in record and head-to-head. The likelihood is they would not play the second game, as it would be for seeding purposes only. If the Mets lose Game 1 and win Game 2, they are in. If not, the Diamondbacks are in

Scenario 2: Braves win, Mets win, Diamondbacks lose

Outcome: Braves are in and play San Diego on Tuesday. Mets are in and play Milwaukee on Tuesday. Diamondbacks are out. No doubleheader Monday.

Scenario 3: Braves win, Mets lose, Diamondbacks win

Outcome: Braves are in and at least one game is necessary Monday. If the Mets win both doubleheader games, they are in. If the Mets lose either game, Diamondbacks are in.

Scenario 4: Braves win, Mets lose, Diamondbacks lose

Outcome: Braves are in and at least one game is necessary Monday. If the Mets win either game, they are in. If they lose both, the Diamondbacks are in.

Scenario 5: Braves lose, Mets win, Diamondbacks win

Outcome: Both games will be played Monday. The winner of Game 1 is in. If the loser of Game 1 wins Game 2, it is in as well. If a team is swept, it is out and the Diamondbacks are in.

Scenario 6: Braves lose, Mets wins, Diamondbacks lose

Outcome: Braves are in and play San Diego on Tuesday. Mets are in and play Milwaukee on Tuesday. Diamondbacks are out. No doubleheader Monday.

Scenario 7: Braves lose, Mets lose, Diamondbacks win

Outcome: Diamondbacks are in and at least one game is necessary Monday. If the Braves win either game, they are in. If the Mets win both doubleheader games, they are in and would face San Diego.

Scenario 8: Braves lose, Mets lose, Diamondbacks lose

Outcome: Braves are in and at least one game is necessary Monday. If the Mets win either game, they are in. If they lose both, the Diamondbacks are in.

The upshot: The Braves are in a very good position. The Mets control their own destiny. And the Diamondbacks need quite a bit of help.

@DeacPB I don't think it's clear enough to say.

[Braves Magic Number @AtlMagicNumber]

Need a Mets win and Diamondbacks loss to eliminate AZ and make Monday unnecessary. Feels icky to root for the Mets but we do what have to.

[Braves Magic Number @AtlMagicNumber]

@Roger_Tiller From what I understand they won't be played just for seeding purposes

[Braves Magic Number @AtlMagicNumber]

@Savage76Patriot I think having a day off tomorrow would be huge for the Braves. That said respect this energy.
