So, 87-win team will be playing 89-win team in the NLCS.

Will be interesting over time to see how the new playoff format rolls.  Hoyer's comment was that teams playing the 3-game wildcard series would be tired, and that the rest for the bye teams would be really advantageous.  But I often wonder if resting and getting out of rhythm doesn't really necessarily help baseball hitters?  And if getting tired is really a think for guys who are living all their lives to get into playoffs and the adrenalin is riding high?  Or maybe it's totally random, just baseball.
