Currently third in the division, they’re 10.5 games behind the Dodgers and 2.5 back of the Wild Card spot, in a tight race with several teams. Their playoff odds have plummeted to around 20%, meaning they’d only make the postseason twice in ten simulated seasons. Offensively, they’re 11th in the NL in runs, with key players like Ketel Marte and Geraldo Perdomo underperforming despite Corbin Carroll’s franchise records. The pitching staff is equally struggling, ranking 11th in ERA, and injuries are mounting. Manager Torey Lovullo’s job security hinges on a playoff run, and while GM hopes to be active at the trade deadline, the team’s current trajectory makes a turnaround look increasingly unlikely.
