    AL Wildcard:
    Boston 62-48
    Texas 62-48
    Tampa Bay 61-50
    Seattle 58-53
    Chicago W-Sox 57-55

    NL Wildcard:
    Colorado 61-50
    San Francisco 61-50
    Chicago Cubs 58-51
    Florida 58-53
    Atlanta 58-54

    With a third of the season remaining, the wildcard races are looking to be tight this year among many clubs. Boston's recent losing streak has thrown them now in the middle of the wildcard chase, instead of challenging for the AL East title.

    Colorado has to be the biggest surprise of the year. They threw up the white flag before the season when they traded Holliday and yet they are tied for the Wild Card lead. They have some good young arms and they play good defense. With that said, they will soon start to slide IMO.

    I would like to see the Rangers get in the post season but both Boston and Tampa Bay would be better bets IMO.

    been waiting on that for a month, but they're still going strong. Jim Tracy teams in general slide going into September.

    I can't believe they are pitching as well as they are. If the Rockies win the Wildcard, I'll eat dirt.
