Major League Baseball’s postseason push is underway and with just five weeks until the end of the 2024 regular season, the Mets and Yankees are very much in the hunt for October baseball.
Overcoming a dreadful stretch between June and July, the Yankees appear to be back on track as the top team in the American League, even with the Baltimore Orioles nipping at their heels for the top spot in the Eastern Division.
The Mets used a barnstorming two months before the trade deadline to completely reverse their fortunes. At the end of May, they were 11 games under .500 and tabbed to be sellers but they turned it around, attempted to bolster their rotation and bullpen, and entered Sunday’s series finale against the Miami Marlins just one game behind the Atlanta Braves for the third and final NL Wild Card spot.
Below are each team’s current odds of making and missing the postseason, courtesy of DraftKings.
