Wild Card Game: Colorado at Arizona. Colorado’s odds: 50%

The Rockies would be facing the Diamondbacks on the road in a win or go home wild card game. If Colorado could find a way to be the home team, their odds of winning would dramatically go up.

The Diamondbacks live on pitching. Forcing Zack Greinke to throw in the high altitude would put the Rockies in a huge advantage. However, they could still win on the road. the Rockies have beat up on Greinke before.

To be completely honest, the wild card game really is a coin flip. Any team can beat any other team, and this game embodies that. Throw in the fact that these teams are really close and competitive with each other (Arizona leads the season series 5-4), and you have a 50/50 ballgame.
