Houston also has the disadvantage of not having the tiebreaker against anyone. They are only 29-37 since July 7. A 5-1 finish should get them in for sure. Good chance at 4-2. But that ridiculous 4 game sweep by Oakland in late July sure looms large. Astros are almost as painful to watch as the Texans right now.
What’s crazy is literally nobody in the AL had clinched a playoff spot until yesterday. Toronto is finally in. 6 games to go. 6 teams trying to get 5 spots.
Dayton should about have a playoff berth wrapped up in 11-5A D1 as they have started 3-0 in that district. Now they switch to 8-5A D2. This will be the best game in the District this week. Montgomery is considered to be a playoff team. Dayton? They were picked 6th, but they sure look like a playoff team. I think the game could go either way, but I’ll ride with the hot team and take Dayton at home in a close game.
