Each team needs to play their allotted games, then we'll know who gets into the playoffs

So Diamondbacks are fucked. They need the Braves or Mets to sweep, when those teams have zero incentive to try and win Game 2 once they win Game 1.

The incentives at play are fascinating. Neither team should want to burn up any talent or energy on these two games, but they each need one (and exactly one, the second win is all but worthless). There may have been a very "wink, wink, nudge, nudge" agreement that, e.g., the Mets won't try too hard on game 1 and in return the Braves will give the starters a rest on game 2.
