Single season save record is 50. Claus will give it a run. Likely to be the first time in many years there has not been a 60 HR season.
Sergio Robles is “that guy” when it comes to the bell curve. He ruins all defensive metrics for OF and CF and his 8.2 WAR going INTO September is insane There have been a total of 8 10+ WAR seasons done by 6 different players.
The single-season ERA record and SHO could also get beaten this year.

Detroit, Ohio Alaska, and Las Vegas. I would call those 4 locks for October. That final WC spot is Minnesota, Chicago or us.

Los Angeles. That's the only lock I'd dare to say in the NL. The East and Central with the Jets hot right now appear to be in play and Washington, San Francisco, New England and Texas are all very much in play for October. Go back and check out who did what at the deadline, it's interesting.
