Summary
The Tampa Bay Rays are on the brink of clinching the AL East title and the coveted number one seed, with their magic number in single digits. A win or a Yankees loss could seal it as early as September 20th, but they’ll need to survive a brutal four-game series at Yankee Stadium next week — including a doubleheader against Max Fried and Carlos Rodon, followed by Gerrit Cole and Cam Schlittler. With the division on the line and a first-round bye at stake, manager Kevin Cash has flexibility with his rotation, potentially deploying Nick Martinez and Drew Rasmussen in the doubleheader. If the Rays can handle the Athletics and Red Sox this week, they’ll enter the showdown with less pressure — but every pitch matters in this high-stakes race.
