The Chicago White Sox will default into the playoffs regardless of how they are playing, which right now isn't well. They have a losing record over their last nine games, but there is no other team in the AL Central over .500. The Rays present a major challenge at 75-47 on the season in the rugged AL East, where four teams are contending for a playoff spot. Since the 4th of July, the Rays are 16-7 vs. a team better than .500. They are also 16-6 at home vs. better than .500 teams in their last 22 played here. Play Tampa Bay in this one.
