Isn't it a combination of wins and losses? The magic number is 8 and the Phils have 86 wins.
So conceivably the Phils could clinch with 90 wins and four additional losses by the Marlins, or any combination totaling 8?
"E# - Elimination Number, the combined number of wins (by the first place team) and losses (by the trailing team) that will eliminate the trailing team from winning the division. The Elimination Number for any team is determined by adding their number of losses to the number of wins for the team leading the division, and subtracting that total from 163. The Elimination Number for the second place team is the "Magic Number" for the first place team."
When the Phillies clinch the NL East, here is the sigline pic for the other fans. These fans have the option of removing it after the final out of the last 2009 World Series game, or they may permanently keep it in their sigline as a pleasant reminder of the wonderful 2008 MLB season, and a show of love, admiration and respect for the greatest baseball franchise of the 21st century.
That's a fine sigline but of course it needs to be resized.

But yes Atlanta/Florida could lose every game left and that number would change.
I doubt that will happen as those two team stll play the Mets I assume.

Steve >>
Don't think so.
As an example, if the Phils win tonight and the Marilns lose the number now becomes 6 yes?
So the Phils then have one less game than 94 to win?
At the least it could be 90, at most 94?
How about this to clear up any confusion.
As of this moment the Phils need 94 wins.
The other games have yet to be played.
Florida and Atlanta COULD win all the way out too.
What happens if that happens Keith?
Suppose Atlanta wins every game they have left?
Would the Phils then need 94 wins?
(unless they play each other) What is so hard to understand?
Of course it takes a combination of wins and losses.
Steve
(If Florida and Atlanta lose the rest of their games)
I have no idea who plays who from this point forward.
I was simply stating what it would take for Philly to win if they had to win the most.
That is why I kept saying as of today or as of this moment.
Steve
Since you're a Mets fan I understand your tendency to look at the worst case scenario first.
And as of this moment it is 94 wins.
Tomorrow it could be 93 or 92 or whatever.
It can NEVER be more then 94
