Wow, in spite of themselves the Jays are actually only 3.5 games out of a WC spot, and 4.5 games out of the AL east lead. With a record of 50-49 they are damn lucky to be that close.
I am starting to think they should go for it. Halladay is coming back sooner than expected, Koskie is back, Hinske is hitting again, this team is one arm and/or one bat away from contention.
In any other year we wouldn't be able to say that, but with almost every AL team having some issues, it might be possible for them to squeak in there.
It isnt likely, but this is the closest we've seen them in years.
