This is up to date not counting the Tampa/WS game. Go WS. I decided to add another layer now with the Magic numbers the Division leaders need to win their division and Magic Numbers for those teams also to clinch a playoff spot. The Orioles is 4!!

Magic # for Orioles Only------------Magic # to Win Division---------------Magic # Playoff Spot

Indians: Eliminated

Twins: Eliminated

Red Soxs: Eliminated

Royals: Eliminated

Blue Jays: Eliminated

Mariners: Eliminated

White Soxs: 1

Tigers: 2* ------------------------------------ 6

Rays: 4

Angels: 4

A's (Top Wildcard Spot): 6 ------------------------------------------------------------ 5

Yankees (Win the Division): 8-----------------6 --------------------------------------- 3

Texas (Best Record in AL!!): 10-------------- 3 --------------------------------------- 1

*The Orioles only need to eliminate one of the two AL Central teams; once one is eliminated, the other could still end up with a better record than the O's, but would be guaranteed to win the division and therefore not compete with the Orioles for a playoff spot.

So close. Would love to clinch a spot this weekend.

If the White Sox win tonight then either Tampa or the White Sox are actually eliminated. Not mathematically put no matter how the rest of the 3 games go one of them has to be eliminated.

Gotta be Tampa right with the White Sox being a game and a half behind Detroit for the central lead.

I think it's possible with a sweep of BOS. I doubt LAA can sweep TEX when they face Darvish in one of the 3. If they lose one and we win 3 we clinch by Sun.

Yeah that sounds right. I expect Texas to handle Anaheim pretty well actually because Texas needs to clinch their division.

Plus they are fighting for best record in the AL.
