The Blue Jays lead the American League East as the season enters its final regular-season stretch, holding a first-place position ahead of the Yankees and Red Sox. The team faces 34 remaining games to secure a division title and avoid the wild-card route. A division victory would be the club's first since 2015. Fan Lesley Mak described the roster as having already exceeded expectations and said some friends call it the 'Team of Destiny.' Toronto's 74-54 record through 128 games slightly outpaces the 2015 squad at the same point, with historical comparisons to recent strong seasons.
The Blue Jays are leading their divisional rivals as the baseball season enters its final regular-season stretch, giving the team a chance to claim a leading playoff spot for the first time in a decade. But there's still a lot of baseball to play, and the team will have to fight their way through 34 more games before the playoffs begin.
Currently, the Blue Jays sit in first place in the American League East, with the Yankees and Red Sox trailing Toronto. If Toronto can stay ahead of those rivals, the club could be looking at its first division title since 2015, meaning they would make the playoffs without having to qualify for a wildcard spot. For playoff-hungry Toronto baseball fans, the time to jump on the bandwagon has come.
Lesley Mak, a noted Blue Jays superfan, says this is a team that's already exceeded expectations ahead of any potential playoff run. "A few of my friends refer to this as the 'Team of Destiny,' " she said.
