He's been a vital piece for a team that is looking to make a late-season surge in the AL Central.Can Elvis Andrus help lead the White Sox to the playoffs?While Andrus has been performing above expectations since joining the White Sox, the team has only managed a 13-12 record during that span. They are within distance of a postseason berth, but will have to go on a heater to make it happen.The White Sox sit three games behind the Cleveland Guardians in the AL Central and 6.5 games back of the Tampa Bay Rays for the final wild card spot.They currently have 18 games remaining on their schedule. Out of those 18 games, 15 of them will be within the Central Division. They have a big three-game against the Guardians from September 20-22. Anything short of a sweep will be a huge blow to their postseason chances.The battle for the division crown could go down to the wire. If Andrus can maintain this level of production, the White Sox could find themselves in the postseason for the second time in three years.Woodward Tigers@WoodwardTigersThe AL Central Race with about 4 weeks left in the season 1.
