People also forget, the Jays beat the Tigers 3 out of 4 a week before the collapse too.

Let's say the Os win the last 4 games against the Jays (including today). And let's also say the Jays go 6-6 in their other remaining 12 games. So 6-10 overall - pretty awful.
Even then, the Os would have to go 10-4, on top of the 4 Ws against the Jays, or 14-4 overall, to catch them
Can those things happen? Sure. The chances? Well, I wouldn't suggest betting on it.
