Does Sean Casey think the Reds can make MLB playoffs as National League Wild Card?

Former Reds fan favorite Sean Casey said he likes Cincinnati's starting pitching and manager.

On MLB Network's "MLB Central," former Cincinnati Reds fan favorite Sean Casey was among analysts predicting whether teams in the National League and American League currently positioned to make the playoffs will earn the six berths available in each league.

Casey said the one team he believes can move into a playoff spot between now and the end of the regular season is the Reds.

Cincinnati entered Thursday trailing the New York Mets by one game for the third and final National League Wild Card.

"I think the Reds get in. The Reds get in," Casey said. "I actually do (really believe that). In my heart. The starting pitching. Terry Francona. I just believe (they knock out) the Mets. Why (not)? They're one game back."
