Rochester is 67-55, second in the wild card standings, but 5.5 games behind Lehigh Valley.
Chattanooga is 25-24 in the second half. They are third in the division, but first-place Jackson is already in the playoffs, so effectively they are second behind Montgomery, three games back.
Fort Myers is 25-24 in the second half. They are fourth in the division, but only 2.5 games behind Jupiter.
Cedar Rapids is 28-21 in the second half. They are second in the division and in position for a playoff spot. They lead Quad Cities by two games and Burlington by three.
Elizabethton is 26-23. They are second in their division, putting them in position for a playoff spot. They lead Greeneville by one game in the playoff race.
The GCL Twins are 24-19, leading their division by 2.5 games over the GCL Red Sox.
The DSL Twins are 29-30, fifth in their division, ten games behind the DSL Mariners1.
