The Tampa Bay Rays dropped a series against the Chicago White Sox and will now host the St. Louis Cardinals before heading on a nine game road trip.
The New York Yankees continue to win nearly every game they play and hold a 7.5 game lead over the Toronto Blue Jays, 8.0 game lead over the Rays, 12.0 game lead over the Boston Red Sox, and a 17.0 game lead over the Baltimore Orioles. Currently the three wild cards would be the Blue Jays, Rays, and Red Sox.
Nevertheless, as of today, all four of these AL East teams would qualify for the playoffs.
