It’s not a good year to be the AL Central. They’ve got the NL West as their interleague division matchup, a division that features three of the NL’s best teams.

After facing the division’s elite, they now get to feast against the division’s weaker teams as they get set to host the San Diego Padres for a best of three series beginning on Tuesday.... 

The Oakland Athletics have been trading off winning and losing streaks which could be a good thing, or a bad one, for the Chicago White Sox as the two teams kickoff a three-game series on Monday.

The Boston Red Sox have risen to the top of the AL East and now boast the second-best record in league. They’ll look to protect their position in the standings when taking on the Texas Rangers in a three-game series, beginning on Monday. The Rangers have been the definition of mediocrity this year, lounging in the wildcard race more because of a lack of quality teams than anything Texas can do.... 

The Los Angeles Angels will journey north to take on the Minnesota Twins in a best of three series beginning on Monday. Both the Twins and Angels are surprisingly in the thick of the AL Wild Card race, both floating around .500 with nearly the entire American League. It’s safe to say both teams have been pleasant surprises to this point. It’s been amazing the Angels have been able to stay afloat without Mike Trout....

The Washington Nationals are such a complex team. They’re leading their division by a mile. They’re nearly a lock for the postseason, but they’re riddled with concerns, none bigger than their Achilles’ Heel in the bullpen.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have the look of one of the best teams in the major leagues, and they are preparing for a series against one of the worst. Even though they are going on the road, the Dodgers should be favored to win the series over the San Diego Padres.... 

The Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets will square off over a three-game series this weekend. This is not a headliner series given their terrible winning percentages, but with the Trade Deadline a month away, both could be fun to watch given their respective trade chips. For now, these two teams are battling to stay out of the cellar in the NL East; New York has a significant lead in that.... 

A series against the White Sox is just what the struggling New York Yankees needed. The Bronx Bombers grabbed a couple wins and will now go into their series with the Major League leading Houston Astros in a three-game set starting on Friday. The Yankees have not been a good road team this year and will be playing a team that took three of four against them in New York earlier this year.... 

The Giants will head to Pittsburgh to play the Pirates riding a three-game winning streak, a small sliver of joy in a season in which they have a 30-51 record. Pittsburgh is six games under .500 itself but is only four games back in the National League Central.The trading deadline is coming soon, and the Giants will certainly be sellers if they have some players others are interested in at the right price. The Pirates are hoping to prove they can still make the playoffs, but they need to do well in this series and in the next few weeks to sell that point to the front office.... 

The Rays have been the better team this season but Baltimore has the home field advantage, so that makes things pretty even. Baltimore manages to miss Tampa Bay ace Chris Archer, which could make the Orioles the favorites to win this series.Both teams are in the middle of the wild card race and not too far back in the division, so each side could really use a couple wins in this matchup....

The Chicago Cubs will wrap up a three-city road trip over the weekend in Cincinnati when they take on the Cincinnati Reds in a best of three series. Chicago continues to tread water around-.500.

And just like that, the Boston Red Sox find themselves atop the AL East standings. On the other side, the Toronto Blue Jays are in the cellar as these two teams get set for a best of three series over the week.

The Rays will aim to keep pace when they hit the road for a series with the Pittsburgh Pirates this week. Pittsburgh is 35-41 on the season and has been outscored by 33 runs, but the National League Central has been so poor that it is still within striking distance of the first-place MIlwaukee Brewers.The Pirates could be sellers at the trading deadline if they fall back, so this is a critical interleague matchup for them to make some hay at home....

The Baltimore Orioles head north of the border for a showdown with the Toronto Blue Jays, each hoping to avoid being the AL East division cellar by series end.

Nevertheless, the O’s are just 13-24 on the road while the Jays are 19-17 at home.... 

This is a bookend series of sorts for the Oakland Athletics and Houston Astros as the first place Astros host the cellar dweller Athletics in the three-game divisional series. Houston has been struggling through injuries to its rotation, but will be at home for what should be a nice easy series before getting back to the grind when the Yankees come to town over the weekend.... 

Washington has gotten off to a much better start this season, running away with the National League East.

Boston is knotted up with the New York Yankees atop the American League East, while Minnesota has used a three-game winning streak to move a half-game ahead of the Cleveland Indians in the American League Central.

Just like that, the Colorado Rockies have not only conceded the top spot in the NL West, but now sit in third place, it’s been a tough divisional stretch for Colorado who’s now lost back-to-back series against the Diamondback and Dodgers. The Rockies will stay in division for their next series, but will get to face the cellar dweller San Francisco Giants who they’ve swept in a four-game set a couple weeks ago.
