Toronto's hopes of clinching the AL East could be hanging in the balance by the time they return home.
Six-and-a-half-games. That was what the Toronto Blue Jays lead in the AL East division was on July 26. It has steadily gone down since that point with Toronto owning a record of 16-17 over the last 33 games. Both the Yankees and the Red Sox have climbed back to within striking distance and with the Blue Jays currently on a six game road trip - their hold on the AL East could be gone by the time they get back home on September 9.
