Will the Colorado Rockies make the playoffs?

The Rockies are two games behind the D’backs. Let’s consider the scenarios. If the Rockies sweep, they at least tie for the wild card. (SD could still win the division if they sweep Milwaukee.) If the D’backs win one game at Coors this weekend, the Rockies will not be able to win the division. For them to be able to at least tie for a wild card spot, they’ll need SD to lose 2 out of 3 to MIL and for neither PHI and NYM to sweep WSH and FLA respectively. I can’t see this happening. No way does SD lose 2 out of 3 to MIL with how poorly the Brewers have been playing, especially with Peavy on the mound Sunday if the Padres need him. So basically if they sweep, they’re in. If not they’re out. The D’backs send Webb to the mound tonight. That will be a tough task, but if they can somehow manage to beat him, they should be in good shape as the rest of the D’backs pitchers are mediocre to bad.
