And if you think that St Louis will gain 5 games and win the Division, then it's plausible that the Rockies gain 4.5 and take the Wild Card.

Your statement makes no sense.

If it's close, the voting will go Pujols' way because of his name and Cargo will be the most overlooked because he plays for the Rockies.

Cargo has a good chance pass Pujols and Votto on the RBIs but I agree that the HR lead is the tough nut to crack.

5 games is nothing with a month and change left to play. They have 3 head to head games left. The Cards have much, much more experience and the better overall team and superior coaching. The Mets blew a 7.5 game lead with 17 games to play once so five with over a month is not a huge deal. The Reds will fold in September/October of that I am confidant.
