I'd be shocked if the Jays don't get swept by the Rays/Twins, let alone win the series.

Any team that comes out of the AL Central needs their stats to be taken with a grain of salt. When you play half your games against 4 of the bottom 6 teams in the AL you will get some skewed numbers. Head to head the Rays and Twins have played the Jays similarly. The big difference is historically the Jays have mashed at Target Field. Not so much at the Trop. I'd do anything I could to avoid the Trop. It's also a terrible atmosphere for playoff baseball.
