Elephant Rumblings: Houston Astros still haven’t clinched postseason spot

Good morning, Athletics Nation!

The Oakland A’s have clinched the AL West division crown, and the only question left is who they’ll play in the best-of-three Wild Card Round at the Coliseum next week.

If the A’s hold their current No. 2 seed or move up to No. 1, then they’ll face a Wild Card (third-place) team, which could be anyone including the Indians, White Sox, or Twins, or maaaybe the Blue Jays or Yankees but probably not.

If Oakland finishes No. 3, then they’ll play the worst second-place club, which will definitely come from the AL West.
