After today, the Pelicans only have two six-game series left plus the playoffs, which they qualified for with their first-half title. The South Bend Cubs have three six-game series left. They also have a five-game lead in the second half, so they have a strong chance of making the playoffs as well.
The Smokies have four six-game series left and Iowa has five six-game series and one three game series remaining. This is the new normal and the first season of the revamped minor league schedule. If you remember, last year was messed up with a late start because of the pandemic.
