Blue Jays Edge Closer to Wild Card | Toronto Blue Jays News

The Toronto Blue Jays are reeling after a brutal 10-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers, dropping below .500 with just 10 games left and now trailing the Cleveland Guardians by two in the wild card race. With the Texas Rangers surging ahead in the standings, Toronto faces a must-win series this weekend—or risk falling further behind. Complicating matters, the Guardians are also chasing the AL Central title, and if they win it, the Chicago White Sox could sneak into the wild card, which would be disastrous for Toronto’s playoff hopes. Ironically, the Jays should be rooting for the White Sox to clinch the division—because a Guardians loss would help Toronto close the gap. Tonight’s game features Max Scherzer (recently shaky) against Keider Montero, with first pitch at 3:07 PM ET.
