SEATTLE — The Yankees were the first American League team to clinch a spot in this year’s postseason, assuring themselves at least an AL Wild Card berth with their 2-1, 10-inning victory over the Mariners on Wednesday evening at T-Mobile Park.

Their sights are set upon much, much more.

It has been 15 years since the Yankees’ last appearance in a World Series, when they opened their new stadium by hoisting a championship trophy for the 27th time. Everyone in pinstripes agrees that the next title is long past due.

“I’m excited about the opportunity,” manager Aaron Boone said. “I feel like we have as good a chance as anyone. I do like our chances. You get in that tournament of 12 teams, anything can happen as we know in the postseason, but I do like our team.”

Now that they have returned to the playoffs following a one-year absence, the Yankees’ next objective is to finish off their charge for the AL East title. They lead the Orioles by five games entering play Thursday, their largest advantage of the season, with 10 regular-season games remaining.

“It’s there to be taken now,” Boone said. “We’ve got to keep the gas pedal down and keep racking up some wins.”

What could the postseason roster look like?
Rosters revert to 26 players for the postseason, with a maximum of 13 pitchers. Rosters are due the morning of Game 1 in each round, so there’s plenty of time before the Yankees must make a final call, but here’s an early guess of how they could set things for a potential AL Division Series.

C: Austin Wells, Jose Trevino
1B: Anthony Rizzo
2B: Gleyber Torres
SS: Anthony Volpe, Oswaldo Cabrera
3B: Jazz Chisholm Jr., Jon Berti
LF: Jasson Domínguez, Alex Verdugo
CF: Aaron Judge, Trent Grisham
RF: Juan Soto
DH: Giancarlo Stanton
SP: Gerrit Cole, Carlos Rodón, Luis Gil
RP: Nestor Cortes, Jake Cousins, Ian Hamilton, Tim Hill, Clay Holmes, Tommy Kahnle, Clarke Schmidt, Marcus Stroman, Luke Weaver

What’s left to play for?
Now that the Yankees have assured themselves a postseason berth, their next objective is to secure the American League East. As mentioned above, they’re in good position for that goal.

A three-game series against the Orioles Sept. 24-26 in New York offers an opportunity to put the division on ice, while also providing an opportunity to see a potential playoff opponent.

Who are the Yankees going to face?
If the postseason started today, the Yankees would own the No. 1 seed in the American League, awaiting the Royals-Orioles AL Wild Card Series winner.

The Yanks were 5-2 against Kansas City this season, taking three of four in a June 10-13 series at Kauffman Stadium, then winning two of three in the Bronx Sept. 9-11 (including Chisholm’s first career walk-off hit on Sept. 11).

They’ve gone 4-6 against the O’s this season, with three more games still to play. The Yanks lost three of four in Baltimore April 29-May 2, lost two of three June 18-20 in the Bronx, then took two of three leading into the All-Star break July 12-14.

In the other bracket, the Guardians would await the Twins-Astros AL Wild Card Series winner. The Yanks were 4-2 vs. Cleveland, 6-0 vs. Minnesota and 6-1 vs. Houston this season.

When do the playoffs start?
The AL Wild Card Series is scheduled to be played Oct. 1-3. Assuming the Yankees bypass that round, the AL Division Series would begin on Oct. 5 at Yankee Stadium.

When do postseason tickets go on sale?
Tickets for the potential Wild Card, ALDS and ALCS games at Yankee Stadium will go on sale Sept. 20 at 2 p.m. ET. Please visit https://www.mlb.com/yankees/tickets/postseason for more information.

What will the playoff rotation look like?
It’s still too early to say, but one educated guess has them slotting Cole, Rodón and Gil, with Cortes and Schmidt beginning the postseason in the bullpen.

Cole’s Game 1 start seems assured, while Rodón has pitched to a 6-2 record and 3.18 ERA in his last 10 starts since July 22. Gil is putting the finishing touches on a strong campaign that will merit consideration in the AL Rookie of the Year race.

Are there any significant health concerns?
The Yankees have had a lot of good news on the health front, recently reinstating Rizzo, Berti, Gil and Schmidt from the injured list. Infielder DJ LeMahieu is on the IL with a right hip impingement and is uncertain to play again this season.

Right-hander Cody Poteet and right-hander Lou Trivino are on Minor League rehab assignments at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, and Boone has said Poteet is “really close” to being big league ready.

Will the Yankees celebrate again if they win the AL East?
You bet. After being on the outside looking in during the postseason last year, the Yankees plan to celebrate each step on their journey this October. As Boone said: “Any time you get in it, I think it’s important to appreciate that. The season is a gauntlet, it’s long, it’s a grind.”
