NL West - A 2 Horse Race?

First diary - by the way, so be gentle. :)

I was perusing the NL West standings this morning, and I noticed that the Padres have 44 games remaining as do the Rockies.  The Dodgers have 43 games left and are 6.5 games out.  Assuming the Padres/D-Backs can finish up .500 the rest of the way out, that means the Dodgers would have to go 28-15 over the next 43 to catch up and the Rocks would have to go 27-17.  Is this possible?  Or do we write off everybody but the D-Backs?
