Plus we would have home field advantage throughout, which is always huge. Skydome is a mashers park and we have the best offense so it be better for us to have that.
The AL won the AS game so we'd get home field in the World Series if they advance that far.

Normally, I'd hate to face the winner of the WC game because recent history suggests that those are usually the hottest teams (Royals and Giants last year), but the slumping Astros, fatigued Yankees, or mediocre Twins team is a great matchup for the Jays. Unless the Cleveland Indians manages to sneak in that WC game (that's one team that I'd hate to face in a 5 game ALDS), I'm confident about the Jays chances this year.
