New York Yankees play Toronto Blue Jays after Chicago Cubs face Milwaukee Brewers in opening games of the Division Series.

The 2024 World Series champion Dodgers were the only team to sweep (the Reds) in the wild-card round, and they take on the Phillies in the penultimate game of the day. Lastly, the AL West champion Mariners host the Tigers, who vanquished the Guardians in their wild-card series to salvage an epic end-of-season collapse.

The Brewers, hoping to lock down home-field advantage throughout the postseason, opened their three-game set with the Padres with a loss.

The Reds enter the final day of the 2025 MLB regular season needing a win or a Mets loss to clinch their postseason berth.

We’ll break down why with my Saturday, September 27 MLB picks. Andrew Abbott has pitched very well for the Cincinnati Reds this season, but he’s hit a wall of late, conceding at least three runs in five of his past nine starts.

The Brewers magic number to clinch the best record in the major leagues is three over the Phillies and one over the Blue Jays for home-field advantage throughout the postseason. Brewers vs. Padres, Sept. 24, 3:10 p.m.: Milwaukee RHP Quinn Priester (13-2, 3.25) vs. San Diego TBA. TV – FanDuel Sports Wisconsin. Radio – AM-620 WTMJ.

Guerrero launched the Toronto Blue Jays' postseason journey with a first-inning homer and tacked on a sacrifice fly as the Blue Jays defeated the New York Yankees 10-1 to get a leg up in this best-of-five ALDS.

The Toronto Blue Jays are heading into the American League Division Series without two players who have 10 combined All-Star nods.
