Doesn't change how we play there lol.  

That was then this is now.  We do well against good teams.

Winning 1 in Tampa is our best case scenario... lets be real here lol.  

We have like 30 games against teams under .500 to make it up.  

Would suck to fall 2 more games back immediately but you're right there's time to climb back into it

[SeranthonySantander]

The problem was we got hot but every other wild card contender  has literally not lost a single game

Jays are in a way better position than I thought they would be in for the last two solid months of despair 

Playoffs are automatic 

[G-Snarls]

Red Sox lost to the Pirates again and have lost 7 of their last 10 

Would LOVE to see them fall 3-4 more games back and let two WC spots be potentially in reach

Tough loss, but if you told me at the beginning of the week that the Jays would take 3 of 4 from the Red Sox and 2 of 3 from the Yankees, I think every Jays fan would’ve taken that without hesitation. Going 5–2 against two divisional rivals is a very successful homestand, regardless of how frustrating the final game was.

The real test comes now against Tampa Bay on the road. After the strides they made during this homestand, you can’t afford to give it all right back with a poor series in Tampa and then another bad one in New York next weekend. Win both of these road series and then we're getting more serious. Worst case, you’ve got to come out of this road trip at least 3–3 to stay within reach.

Absolutely right

This ump is so bad. Wonder how many were overturned, let alone how many he missed overwll

Yeah this was one of the worst umpire "performances" I can recall in recent memory. The missed call that bugged me the most was the potential ball 4 call to Kirk which was immediately followed by a GIDP.
