## Resource

Houston Astros survive a brutal sweep by the Rays and still lead the AL West with a .500 record—thanks to a 10-year Silver Boot tiebreaker. They’re in a playoff race that’s tighter than ever, holding a slim one-game edge over the Rangers with a 77% chance to make the postseason and a 74% shot at winning the division. While their remaining schedule isn’t ideal—struggling against the A’s and Mariners—they’ve got a manageable strength of schedule. The Rangers? Slightly tougher road ahead. With both teams projected to finish around .500, this could be the wildest division title race in recent memory.
