I think the best thing to do is stay the course and hope that with new play-off format that one of the top 3 will slip up some year and then the Jays can take advantage then.

So you don't believe Bautista is the best player in baseball right now?
...and by having the east more competitive that helps the Jays as the Yankees, Red Sox and Rays beating each other will prevent a runaway. The big thing that will sustain the Jays is their bullpen, which has been excellent, but they need another legitimate bat.
