St Louis and Minnesota still have the most motivation to win, right?

Any other thoughts on the playoff teams' motivation today?

For example, Atlanta might not care about winning or losing the rest of the regular season.

Oakland, TB and Cleveland should all have plenty of motivation for today too, of course.

Reds are steaming down, are the Brewers really getting the majority of the action?

St Louis, Milwaukee, Washington, LA Dodgers, Houston, NY Yankees, Oakland, Tampa Bay and Cleveland all have something to play for


Minnesota and Atlanta are locked into their playoff position


Houston, NY and LA are playing for best record and home field

St Louis is trying to win their division, Milwaukee is trying to catch them and, if they cannot do so, try to pass Washington for home field in the wild card game. Washington is trying to keep their spot to host the wild card game .

Neither Oakland, Tampa or Cleveland have secured a playoff spot as yet

How bad are the Tigers when a teams backup squad is -140 against them. Not sure what to read in that game.

Thought that was determined by the winner of the All-Star game.
