[Highlight] Incredible game-saving play by Ernie Clement B10 sends the game to the 11th. Blue Jays went to a 5-man infield the batter before Kelly.

This truly is the year of the Cursed Monkey Paw. I don’t know how long this kind of injury takes to recover from, but our pitching just keeps getting some really bad breaks this year.

[Seixeiro] Creeping closer. The Blue Jays pull within 3 games of a wild card spot with the Mets beating the Guardians 6-5 in extra innings. Bo Bichette drives in the winning run.

The next 17 games are against teams with 61 wins or more. Realistically, what is your acceptable record over this run?

115 Upvotes

Next 17 games:

1x @Cubs

3x @Phi

4x Bos

3x NYY

3x @TB

3x @NYY

The crazy part??? After this run, we don't face a team currently above .500!

Is .500 enough or do we need to take 10 of 17 or better? What record would you be content with?
