The 2021 Major League Baseball regular season has begun its final week, and baseball's playoff picture is taking final shape. We officially have six of our 10 postseason teams, as the White Sox, Giants, Dodgers, Brewers, Rays and Cardinals constitute more than half the field. The Astros and Braves should be next to join them as their magic numbers sit at one to clinch the American League West and National League East, respectively. In the NL West the Giants' magic number is at three as San Francisco continues to maintain a lead over the defending champion Dodgers.
So how will all this shake out? We'll find out the answers before the postseason gets started Oct. 5. But it's also worth asking, what would the MLB playoff picture look like if the season ended today? We have the answer to that question, as well as up-to-date standings and playoff odds, below.
