DENVER -- Not comfortable answering today, but you asked.
The Rockies are close to securing the second National League Wild Card, which would mean a playoff game Wednesday at Arizona, which has the top Wild Card spot. The winner would meet the Dodgers in the NL Division Series presented by T-Mobile starting Oct. 6. But the Rockies have to make it there first.
But, hey, that's the Rockies' job. That said, many of the questions I took for the Edward Jones Beat Reporter's Inbox are based on the team playing beyond the regular season.
@Gooorox22: Has Raimel Tapia gained enough trust from Bud [Black] to be the main pinch-hitter in the Wild Card Game should they make it?
