Houston Astros

We are heading for another memorable divisional race between the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees in the American League East. Both teams have a host of rising stars and both made major moves before the recent trade deadline. There is no bigger rivalry in baseball and these two big market titans have a history of not getting along with one another. Let the games begin.

Each playoff series has one game this weekend with the AL having their third – and potentially final games – while the NL is only onto game two. Here of a quick preview of what to expect from each game and a pick on who should be victorious.

Just as the weather starts to cool down, the battle of Texas starts to heat up with plenty on the line and nothing sorted out. The last game of the pivotal American League West series starts at 8:05 pm EST in Arlington, Texas.
