Alarming report has the Toronto Blue Jays in serious trouble
The Toronto Blue Jays have some seriously big problems on the way as they have the 13th hardest remaining schedule this season.
The Blue Jays are currently in first place and have been for the last few weeks but it looks like it will not be an easy task for them to remain in that position to end the season.
Blue Jays have the 13th hardest schedule to end the year
The Blue Jays are currently in first place in the American League East as they are 3 games ahead of the Boston Red Sox and 4.5 games ahead of the New York Yankees.
The Yankees who have been battling for first with the Blue Jays for the last few weeks have now fallen to third place as the Boston Red Sox continue to pick up momentum and have jumped into third place.
Yankees have now fallen to 3rd place, but the Red Sox are now surging, and only 3 games behind the Blue Jays.
As the Blue Jays look to finish the season holding onto first place, this task will not be easy as they have the 13th hardest schedule left as they will have to face the Brewers, Cubs, Dodgers, Astros, Yankees and Red Sox in that time.
The Blue Jays have the 13th-hardest remaining strength of schedule with a .502 winning %
The Red Sox are 12th (.503) and the Yankees are 23rd (.491)
The Red Sox are 12th (.503) and the Yankees are 23rd (.491)
The other tough part in all of this is that both the Yankees and Red Sox have easier schedules to finish the season.
Toronto has the talent to finish first but they need to continue to deliver and have to avoid back to back series losses like they just had.
