They took three of four against Texas at home over the weekend to improve to 6-1 in their last seven games. The Yankees will play a makeup game against the New York Mets at home on Monday before facing Tampa Bay for three games as part of this extended 11-game home stand.

Cleveland continue to roll in the AL Central at 66-51 after winning seven if its last 10 games. The Indians’ lead over Minnesota has ballooned to 12 games heading into this week’s three-game inter-league road series against Cincinnati.

Houston continued to give up ground in the AL West Division race with four straight losses at home to Seattle over the weekend. The Astros are 73-46 overall with Oakland (70-48) just 2.5 games back and the Mariners (69-50) now four games off the pace.
