Playoff races still up for grabs: Eight teams (the Blue Jays, Yankees, Mariners, Phillies, Brewers, Cubs, Dodgers, and Padres) have punched their tickets to October already. That leaves four spots up for grabs headed into the final weekend of the regular season. Here's a quick overview of the teams still fighting for a spot, with playoff odds courtesy of FanGraphs:
