A letdown is only a mild concern if at all as the Pirates did clinch a playoff spot last night. But remember because of the wild card game, the divisional title has more meaning and the Bucs most definitely have that carrot.

In their last five games the Pirates has a slugging percentage edge of .110. Their last 10 games it is a whopping .414 to .249. Pirates are 13-3 in their last 16 after allowing two runs or less in their previous game. Atlanta is a pathetic 8-20 overall.
