There isn’t a ton of drama remaining when it comes to playoff seeds.<\/p>\n
While there may be some reshuffling of seeds, a number of teams already feel like locks. The Rays, Yankees and Red Sox are all extremely safe bets, while the White Sox would need a pretty major collapse to both blow the division and fail to earn a Wild Card bid. <\/p>\n
But the AL West remains wide open, and so does the chase for the final Wild Card berth. None of those teams seem likely to truly challenge the AL East trio once it comes to October baseball, but it only takes one hot team to shake things up. <\/p>\n
There’s even less drama in the National League, where the Dodgers and Brewers have all but wrapped up their division and Atlanta’s recent seven-game winning streak has kept their lead over the Phillies to five games.<\/p>\n
The Cubs and Phillies are also comfortably atop the Wild Card standings, leaving the major remaining drama the battle between the Diamondbacks, Padres and perhaps the Marlins for the final Wild Card berth. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The MLB playoff picture continued to take shape on Sunday.
