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.

I think we can all agree that watching the Mets clinch the division at Truist Park would be an absolute nightmare. So, the #Braves have to be leading the division by 1 game before that series starts to avoid the possibility of that happening. The magic # for that is 12.

Braves took the division lead, the magic number was 44. NLDS: Braves play Milwaukee, where Hank Aaron started his career. NLCS: Braves play the Dodgers, the team that Aaron hit No. 715 against. World Series: we play the Astros, managed by Aaron’s teammate who was on deck for 715

Here we are. The start of the playoffs for the Braves.
What happens next? I don't know. I just know I wouldn't count this team out.
Every team here has better record. But you don't have to be better over 162. You just have to be better over 5 or 7.
11 wins to a championship.
