One interesting thing of note, as of right now the Jays only play 7 games against teams above .500 the rest of the way (all against the Yankees).
7 Vs Baltimore - 63-63
6 Vs Tampa - 62-64
3 Vs Cleveland - 60-66
3 Vs Detroit - 60-67
6 Vs Boston - 58-69
3 Vs Atlanta - 54-73
That doesn't necessarily mean anything as they did split their last 4 against the Phillies (worst team in Baseball) but it's a lot easier to beat teams that don't have as good of talent than teams like the Twins, Royals, Angels, and Rangers.
Plus they only need a 19-16 record in those 35 remaining games (assuming they don't have a 9th inning comeback in them) to get 90 wins. That's not bad. That's only a .543 winning percentage.
