[h=1]Pennant race standings and projected postseason matchups: September 17[/h]If the season ended today, Pennant Race Standings, Pennant races
By Cliff Corcoran

Standings updated as of 5 pm on Tuesday, September 17.
NOTE: For the remainder of the regular season, The Strike Zone will have a daily post updating the standings relevant to the postseason races. The positive numbers under Games Behind for the wild-card leaders indicate their lead over the third-place team in the race, or how far they are from being knocked out of a playoff spot. The Elimination Number (E#) column indicates the total number of the given team’s losses and leading team’s wins needed to eliminate that team from the race (essentially the reverse of a magic number). The magic number of the leading team is the elimination number of the second-place team. Postseason Odds are from ClayDavenport.com and will be updated in the mornings only.

Some great races, the parity this year is greater than I can ever remember.
 
Still too early to guess even in some of the races. I'm hoping the Jays get to play spoiler over the next tww weeks...especially tampa the last weekend.
 
Indians must love schedule makers ... In early September they were on the outside looking in and then they get White Sox twice , Twins and the Astros to finish off the season .

Angels are in.

Angels are in a lot of trouble with some of their long term contracts.

Other than that, the Angels aren't in much of anything.

Tampa vs Texas...game 163..winner goes to the sudden death wild card game.
Click to expand...

So it's kind of a sudden stay of execution game....for at least one day.
 
Tampa got a big slice of luck with their last game vs Jays. Despite giving up 6 runs in the first innings the Jays very nearly recovered to win. It was only a very rare poor start by Redmond and relief pitching by Wagner that virtually gave the game away.

Good luck to Texas.
 
He's not the only one. :rolleyes:
