The Mariners are finishing up their series in Texas on Sunday, having taken the first two games against the Rangers. Meanwhile, the Astros are hosting the Angels for another home matchup after securing victories in the first three games. Seattle holds a 6-4 edge in their season series against Houston.

The AL Wild Card race remains wide open, with the Mariners sitting just 1.5 games behind the final playoff spot. Currently, the Twins hold that last Wild Card berth, while the Tigers are just half a game ahead of Seattle. For the Mariners to sneak into the postseason, they’ll need the teams ahead of them to stumble, though that's beyond their control as they wrap up the season facing only Houston and Oakland.

Five of the six division leaders in MLB have already secured either a division title or a playoff spot. The lone exception is the Houston Astros, who have yet to clinch a postseason berth. Despite holding the worst record among division leaders and ranking just 10th overall in baseball, the Astros still maintain a five-game cushion over the Mariners. With that advantage, it seems only a matter of time before they punch their ticket to the playoffs.
