If the Major League Baseball season ended after Tuesday’s games, Arkansas baseball fans wouldn’t recognize many familiar faces.
Based on the current MLB standings, the only former Razorback who would be participating in the Major League Baseball postseason is Ryne Stanek with the New York Mets.
Stanek and the Mets currently hold the final NL Wild Card spot by just one game ahead of the Cincinnati Reds, and two games ahead of Jalen Beeks and James McCann of the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Arkansas currently has two other alumni on MLB rosters. Both Andrew Benintendi and Dominic Fletcher are with the Chicago White Sox, which has already been eliminated from the playoffs and will finish with the second-worst record in baseball.
(Note: Benintendi was moved to the injured list on Tuesday.)
But there’s still time for the standings to change.
The final day of the regular season is just four days away and sports fans know crazy stuff can happen at any moment.
Just ask Mike Washington Jr. about unexpected, game-changing moments and you’ll have a good idea why at least two more former Razorbacks have a shot at playing in October.
Here’s how the former Razorbacks fared in the final week of the MLB playoff chances.
