Red Sox in the hunt for a playoff spot in what is shaping up to be a wild final week of the season
"There's no need to scoreboard watch Monday night, Red Sox fans. Not only is it a day off for the Sox, but the entire American League will be off before resuming play on Tuesday. For the Sox, currently holding the second wild-card spot with a record of 85-71, that will be a three-game set with the first-place Blue Jays as they play their final road series before returning to Fenway Park for a three-game series with the Tigers to conclude the season."
"The Blue Jays (90-66) clinched a playoff spot on Sunday but are just two games ahead of the Yankees in the AL East with six to play. After facing the Red Sox, Toronto will wrap up with three games at Tampa Bay. The Yankees (88-68) also won on Sunday, putting up six runs in the 10th inning for a 7-1 victory at Baltimore to maintain their hold on the top wild-card spot."
The Red Sox are 85-71 and hold the second American League wild-card spot. Monday is an off day for the entire AL, and the Red Sox open a three-game series at first-place Toronto on Tuesday before finishing the season with three home games against the Tigers. The Blue Jays are 90-66 and already clinched a playoff spot while leading the AL East by two games with six to play. The Yankees are 88-68 and remain the top wild-card team. The Guardians and Astros sit 84-72, one game behind Boston for the last wild-card spot.
