The Texas Rangers could punch their ticket to the MLB playoffs on Thursday with a win, what are the Rangers playoff chances?
when they begin their four-game series with the Seattle Mariners . What are the Rangers playoff scenarios?The Rangers are swept in their series against the Mariners. Houston is swept by the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Minnesota Twins win their last four games.This would happen because the Rangers own the tiebreaker over the Mariners due to their head-to-head record but would lose the second seed in the MLB playoffs to the Twins who own the tiebreaker over the Rangers.
In this scenario, the Rangers would win the AL West, be the No. 2 seed in the MLB playoffs, and host the ALDS versus the winner of the Wild Card matchup between the Twins and the No. 6 seed.The Rangers win one out of their last four against Seattle in combination with the Astros sweeping the Diamondbacks and the Blue Jays winning three out of their last four games.
This would have the Astros winning the AL West due to owning the head-to-head tiebreaker over the Rangers. The Rangers would then become the No. 5 seed over the Blue Jays because of the head-to-head tiebreaker over Toronto but the Blue Jays would still make the playoffs as the No. 6 seed.This would be the same scenario as above but the Blue Jays would win each of their last four games which would give them a better record than the Rangers and would push the Rangers to the last Wild Card spot.
This would have the Mariners winning the AL West division with the Astros and Blue Jays taking the last two AL Wild Card spots and the Rangers missing the playoffs.
