Wouldn’t surprise me if expanded playoffs stays next year (too much money involved and no guarantee fans will be allowed back at full capacity by next April). Even if it isn’t there next year and it’s back to the normal playoff format, I think the Jays can jump from .500ish team (where they are now) to a playoff contender with the right moves. Yes there’s a strong chance the Jays make it this year and Bauer/Ryu in a 3 game series gives us a shot to advance but I don’t think the team is ready for that step yet. If Bauer were locked up for at least another year, then that changes things.
