The Blue Jays are about to enter a period of three, three-game series with no days of rest—against some of the best teams in the MLB. In order of schedule, the Blue Jays will oppose the 26-21 Angels, the surprising 27-18 Philadelphia Phillies, and the division rival 32-15 Red Sox (all records based on the date this article was written, May 21).
Currently, the Blue Jays find themselves 5.5 games out of the second wildcard spot, with three teams ahead of them. Granted, the Blue Jays have played just 47 games and there is plenty of baseball to play.
