Tie breakers have been determined. This is the current standings and seedings if the playoffs started today. Some seeds are fluid depending on the final week finish.

3-0 Division record
#2 Minnesota Twins (AL Central Champion) :
18-4 Overall
8-2 Conference record
3-0 Division record
#3 Boston Red Sox :
18-4 Overall
6-3 Conference record
1-2 Division record
#4 Oakland Athletics (AL West Champion) :
17-5 Overall
8-1 Conference record
2-0 Divsion record
#5 Texas Rangers :
16-6 Overall
5-4 Conference record
1-2 Division record

16-6 Overall
6-4 Conference record
0-2 Division record
Outside looking in :
#7 Tampa Bay Rays :
15-7 Overall
5-4 Conference record
2-1 Division record
NATIONAL LEAGUE[/u]
#1 Colorado Rockies (NL West Champion) :
18-4 Overall
10-2 Conference record
4-0 Division record
#2 Milwaukee Brewers (NL Central Champion) :
16-6 Overall
8-3 Conference record
4-0 Division record
#3 Atlanta Braves (NL East Champion) :
15-7 Overall
8-2 Conference record
1-1 Division record
#4 St. Louis Cardinals :
14-8 Overall
8-4 Conference record
2-2 Divsion record
#5 Washington Nationals :
13-9 Overall
8-4 Conference record
3-1 Division record
#6 Cincinnati Reds :
13-9 Overall
7-3 Conference record
2-1 Division record
Outside looking in :
#7 Chicago Cubs :
12-10 Overall
7-3 Conference record
2-1 Division record
#8 Philadelphia Phillies :
11-11 Overall
7-4 Conference record
1-1 Division record
So this is the playoff picture and you can see what seeds can change. It could be pretty amazing to see a 14 win team not make the playoffs in the AL, but that is how tough the top of the league has been and the bottom of the league how bad. Both #6 seeds will be decided this week. The only team really out of it is the Phillies as a win still wouldnt get them in as their conference record wasnt good enough. The Blue Jays got the number #1 seed so far because of the H2H tie breaker with the Twins as they won their only match up with them as well as against the Red Sox.
The conference records and division records were figured by Blue Jays GM (Allen). If anyone has a dispute with the tallies, please speak up and explain which ones. I would have liked that our fill in Commish would double check the stats for accuracy or someone confirm them. If not they will stand as just glancing, they look correct.
Hope this helps clear up the playoff picture.
