The Texas Rangers currently sit atop the American League West, but can they win out to make the World Series?

There’s still plenty of baseball to go in the next few months, with most teams wrapping up their regular season in late September and early October. The Rangers final game of the 2023 season is on Oct. 1 against the Seattle Mariners.

Despite Texas leading the American League West by half a game, the Houston Astros currently have better odds (-125) on winning the division than the Rangers (+130), according to Draftkings. As for winning the World Series, the Rangers have moderate odds (+1100) to win than most teams at the moment.

If the Rangers do make the playoffs, it would be their first postseason trip since 2016. Here’s what we know about playoff tickets:

Are MLB playoff tickets on sale yet?

Not quite, but expect that to change as teams clinch their respected divisions.

Individual teams sell tickets to the playoff games they host, meaning they have the final say on when passes are available, according to Gametime. Rangers fans best bet is to watch the team closely over the next couple months to see how things shake out in the division and wild card.

When do MLB playoff tickets go on sale?

If teams hold off on selling tickets until they secure a playoff berth, that usually happens sometime in September.

As the season winds down in September, the playoff picture will become clearer, so will the selling of postseason tickets. Whether the Rangers win out the division or make it into the wild card, fans should expect to see playoff tickets on sale in late September.

What’s the best way to buy MLB playoff tickets?

Whenever playoff tickets go on sale this fall, there’s a few ways to stay ahead of the curve.

Season ticket holders typically get first dibs at playoff tickets since that’s included in their plan when they purchased passes at the beginning of the year. The best way for non-season ticket holders to buy playoff passes early is to find someone who is, according to Gametime.

If making friends with a season ticket holder isn’t in the cards, buying tickets directly from the Rangers when they go on sale to the general public is the next best thing. Buying directly from the Rangers saves fans from visiting third party websites where tickets could be reselling for double or triple their original rate, according to Gametime.
