**Strong pitching staffs across the 2026 playoff field, including the Dodgers' depth with Tarik Skubal, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Blake Snell, and Tyler Glasnow, plus the Yankees' rotation led by Cam Schlittler and the Brewers' Cy Young candidate Jacob Misiorowski, have fueled occasional no-hit bids.** Recent Division Series and Wild Card games produced extended threats—Michael King carried one into the seventh against the Cubs before an infield single, and Drew Rasmussen reached 7⅔ innings versus the Yankees before it ended—but none were completed. Postseason no-hitters remain exceptionally rare historically, with only three on record across thousands of starts, and the combination of elite bullpen usage, strong lineups from contenders like the Cubs and Dodgers, and shorter starts in October sustains trader consensus around a high probability that none will occur.
