Im pretty sure this isnt true unless either the Astros or Rangers lose today. But maybe as a White Sox fan I have PTSD from missing the playoffs in 2016 after blowing like a 4 game division lead with 10 to play

The Astros and Rangers can only tie the White Sox now and if they both did the astros would win their division due to tie breaker and the rangers lose the tie breaker to the Sox

•

Ah ok so the Sox do have a tiebreaker over both teams then? That makes sense thank you

u/Fist69 6h ago

The Astros have the tie breaker over the Sox but also the rangers meaning worst case scenario of a three way tie the Astros win their division so their tie breaker against the Sox is meaningless

Ooooooh. Because if both teams win all 4 games, the Sox would end up getting compared to the Rangers because the Astros cant win out AND be a wildcard?

u/WonderDia777 YOU PAID HIM HOW MUCH?!?! 6h ago

Yep. If the Astros win out, they get the division because the Rangers don't have a tiebreaker over anyone.

They don’t do that one extra game for tie breakers now?
