No one is guaranteed a playoff spot yet.

Just based on simple math, remaining schedule, and common sense


Fangraphs currently has the Astros at 79.9% chance of making the playoffs. Broken down as 55.1% of winning the division and 24.7% chance of a wild card spot. I guess they rounded in there somewhere.

They have the Astros at 10.9% chance to win the world series, which is behind the Dodgers and Mets and tied with the White Sox. I assume if the Mets are without DeGrom for a while that will change rapidly as well.

If I'm Astros management, I don't like 55.1% of winning the division. That's too low to coast.

I'm not really in support of coasting

But they coasted last year, ending with a losing record and finished one game from the WS

I truly don't think management is concerned about missing the playoffs

Should they be? We'll see. I know it's cliche, but it's a business, and from where I'm sitting, the players are going to have to do something to combat the owners attempts to make them more affordable
