There are 19 games remaining on the schedule for the Toronto Blue Jays and their magic number to win the AL East is down to 18, while the magic number just to clinch a spot in the playoffs is sitting at 11. Barring an absolute chaotic and historic collapse, this team is playoff bound. They enter a crucial section of the schedule with a two-game lead in the AL East division while sporting one of the top two records in the American League.
This week presents the Blue Jays with the best chance to not only build up their lead in both the division and for a first-round bye, but to also shrink that magic number.
