AL - Down to 6 teams within 6 games of the Div leaders this week ... Royals are on a Mad streak .. 24 - 6 since 22 August !! Tigers are doing a great job staying close though. Oakland and LAA still duking it out, and Orioles still cranking the HRs
NL - Also 6 teams within 6 in the NL today. Washington doing a lot of
Winning but Atlanta isn't giving up, STL offense finally decided to score some runs lately, Pirates still in the hunt and slapped the Brew Crew around the last couple days, and Dodgers and Giants the only show in the NL West
Wild Cards .... not the best way to get the the post season but it's better than the alternative if you don't win the division
Looks like the 2 WC teams which will have a 1 game playoff to see who goes through to the ALDS and NLDS will come from:
AL: Oakland or LAA will be one and the other will be one of Seattle, Detroit, or KC
NL: Will be 2 of the following or Brewers or Dodgers so the NL is still wide open esp the NL Central
