Predicting Playoffs or Bust for Each 2015 MLB 'Bubble' Team

Crunch time in the 2015 MLB season has arrived, as teams have just a couple more weeks to make a final push for a postseason spot.

The National League playoff picture looks to be set, at least as far as which five teams will earn a spot, but the NL Central standings are still far from decided.

Meanwhile, the American League picture is a bit more crowded with a tight race for the AL West crown and as many as five teams in the mix for the second wild-card spot.

So, as we like to do in situations like this, let's take a shot at predicting how things will play out for the teams currently on the bubble.

 

Note: All postseason probability numbers come courtesy of Baseball Prospectus and are accurate as of the morning of Sept. 17.
