The conflicting info on this continues to vex me.

Again, let's see how the season plays out and it may be the Cards fall out of the playoffs. Too many teams still alive and within a game or two of each other.

So many teams tied is part of the problem. The only way the Cards would play their make up games against the Pirates is if it impacts whether they're in the playoffs or not.. say if they're 1 game under .500. They play the 2 make up games against the Pirates and that puts them 1 game over .500 and would probably give them the tiebreaker over us and the Brewers and throw them back into second place in the division.
