  • I will answer my own question from the other thread here:  If the playoffs started today, here is who would be in and their seeds:

    ALE:  Boston #3 seed

    ALC: Cleveland #2 seed

    ALW: Houston #1 seed

    #1 Wildcard: Yankees  #2 WC: Twins

    Houston would play wildcard game winner,  Indians/Red Sox would playoff

    --------------------

    NLE: Washington #2 seed

    NLC: Cubs #3 seed

    NLW: LA Dodgers #1 seed

    #1 Wildcard: Arizona #2 WC: Colorado Rockies

    Dodgers would play AZ/Col winner,  Cubs and Nationals would playoff

    Notes: Indians and Red Sox are only a half game separated from each other for #2 seed.   Tribe is only 3 games behind Astros for #1 spot. Red Sox only 3.5 games back.

    Twins are only 1 game ahead of Angels for #2 WC spot...and 1.5 games ahead of Orioles..and 3 games ahead of Texas Rangers

    Cubs are 3.5 games ahead of Brewers, so that could turn into a race. (Brewers currently 3 games behind Rockies for #2 WC spot)

  • It's amazing if you think about it: The Indians are 3 games behind the Astros, who started the season something like 40-15.
