As Major League Baseball reaches the final day of the regular season, there are still a couple boxes to check when it comes to locking in the complete field for the 2025 playoffs.

Almost everything in the National League has been determined, but the New York Mets and Cincinnati Reds are still fighting for the third and final wild card. All six teams in the American League are set, but almost all of the seeding is still up in the air. That includes the No. 1 spot which will go to whoever wins the AL East between the Toronto Blue Jays (vs. Tampa Bay Rays) and New York Yankees (vs. Baltimore Orioles).

Here is every MLB team that has clinched a postseason berth, along with the magic numbers for teams to lock up a spot:
