The Dodgers are within a game of the Nats for the #2 seed with 6 to play and the Dodgers hold the tiebreaker.
#2 seed
WSH --- (Magic # = 6)
LAD -1.0 (Magic # = 7)
For the Wild Card, in the event of a 2-way tie for the 2 WC spots, both the Mets & Cardinals hold the tiebreaker over the Giants. The Mets and Cardinals tied for their season series, but if they finish tied for the season, it is highly likely that the Cardinals would win the tiebreaker. A 2-way tie for the 2nd WC spot or a 3-way tie for both spots has to be decided on the field. Because of that, the magic #s below do not take tiebreakers into account
Wild Card
NYM +0.5 (Magic # vs. SF = 6, vs. STL = 5)
SF --- (Magic # vs. NYM = 7, vs. STL = 6)
STL -1.0 (Magic # vs. NYM & SF = 8)
#2 seed

This is not some silly theory that's unsupported and deserves being mocked by photos of Xena.
