Expect this game to be postponed early - Nats already cancelled tomorrow
Sunday is a little more feasible
So do we get a DH Sunday or do they play Monday?
Problem is Wheeler
If Wheeler pitches Sunday; he would be due to pitch Friday
If he pitches Friday, that pushes him to game 2 of the NLWS if they make it
Win 4 of the next 5 and make it moot (or less if AZ loses another)

Sunday doesn't look great either TBH, and Monday is 50-50.
Regardless, you make every decision based on Wheeler starting Game 1 of the Wild Card. Work around that.

Seeing varying forecasts for Sunday - could be stretches of light rain that they will play through
Worst case scenario is a rain delay after the game starts and they lose Wheeler

I guess that the one positive of a rainout is that it gives the bullpen a rest day
I don't think that they would use Kimbrel tomorrow anyway (or Hoffman) - so if they do try for a DH tomorrow, Phils may be limited
Ideal would be 1 game tomorrow, Wheeler goes 7 and the Phils have a big enough lead for Kerkling/Covey

They are going to try to play
Could be a big mistake

Looking at the updated forecast - I do see the window to play - not much rain between 5-9 potentially
Tomorrow still looking real iffy

I know we still need to clinch, but I'm terrified of bad-weather injuries.
