After a couple weeks of Red Sox and White Sox dominance in the American League, Oakland and Tampa Bay move back into the AL Championship Series. The A's swept the Red Sox this weekend, ensuring at least a few days of the AL crown, and the Rays swept Baltimore, a slightly less impressive feat. But a combined record of 1-5 over the last three games by Chicago and Boston won't take them too far in our playoff predictions.
In National League news, Atlanta's series loss to Arizona drops them below the Diamondbacks in the playoffs and out of the NL Championship Series, a position the Braves had held for only one weekend.
