Thanks a lot, Phillies

Never thought I'd write that headline.

The Brewers have fired their manager Ned Yost, after getting swept by the Phillies and losing seven of eight.

With the Mets struggling a bit, and the Phillies getting hot atop the Wild Card, this might be just what the teams from the NL East need.

The Phillies and Brewers are tied atop the WC standings, so as the Brewers vault into the unknown, with their third base coach taking over, this may open up some space for two NL East teams to get into the postseason.

I still think the Mets will win the division, but this may turn out to be a nice safety net, somewhat thanks to the Phillies dominance.
