The AL East marbles come down to this weekend's Yankees/Red Sox series:
Having already clinched a spot in the postseason, the Yankees have an opportunity to lock up the AL East by knocking off the second-place Red Sox themselves instead of relying on other teams to help reduce their magic number.
It's been a weird year. The Red Sox looked like the team to beat before the All Star Break - but after it, they fell, and the Yankees caught fire. It could be a great playoff season this year...
