Getting to the top is one thing, staying there is another. That's the position the Toronto Blue Jays find themselves in as they enter the 'dog days' of the baseball season with August rolling along. At 69-50 heading into Tuesdays game, the Blue Jays have a four-and-a-half game lead in the AL East, a great spot to be in, but a lead that could shrink quickly if Toronto lets off the pedal just a little bit as the Red Sox have been playing great baseball as well for the better part of the last two months.
Getting to this point of the season has truly been a team effort as they have all shared the spotlight in one way or another this season.
