Brewers & Twins Clinch Playoff Berths; Braves 1st Team to 100 Wins & Rangers Riding 5-Game Streak
Two more teams have secured their tickets to October! The Brewers and Twins both clinched postseason berths over the weekend, and Minnesota officially won the AL Central. That eliminates the Guardians and narrows our playoff-eligible field even further. After the Rangers reeled off five straight wins to retake the AL West, the AL Wild Card race is essentially down to the Mariners, Astros and Blue Jays. The Yankees are technically breathing, but it doesn’t look good. In the NL, the Wild Card outlook is a little more chaotic. The Phillies could clinch as soon as Tuesday, but six teams are still alive in the hunt for the final two NL Wild Card spots. We’re almost there — October is just one week away!
