tiebreakers:
PITT over STL
STL over CINN

PITT-CINN tiebreaker to be determined this weekend. head-to-head they are 8-8 with 3 to play.

TEX over TB
TB over CLEVE
CLEVE over TEX

3-way tie:
CLE 7-5
TB 7-6
TEX 5-8
So it would be TB @ CLE on MON, with the winner going to the wildcard game. The loser plays @ TEX on TUES to determine the other entry.
