On May 7 in the morning (so about a month ago), the Blue Jays had a 16-20 file. The club also had a differential of points scored / granted of -39. Basically, at all matches, the club gave a point more than it was.
At 127 points scored, the club was not exactly in the league elite.
But since that time, it's been better. The club has a 17-9 file for about a month, which means that at the moment, the club is 33-29. And that is enough to be virtually in the portrait of the series.
This may no longer be the case this afternoon since the Rays play at 1:10 p.m., but hey.
What has greatly helped is that since 26 games, the Blue Jays have brought their differential from -39 to -1. So in 26 games, they scored 38 points more than their opponents.
It's about 1.5 more point per meeting, that. And it helps win matches.
What helps is the attack. For the past month, the club has been hit more circuits than 25 other clubs in the league. Addison Barger took off. Andres Gimenez was injured. Daulton Varsho was good offensively when he was healthy.
Even the recipients contributed offensively speaking.
Obviously, the question is whether it will hold on. After all, the mound is sorely lacking in depth and even if the veterans in the rotation hold on, we do not know if it will last.
If the club was in the national, it would be harder. But in the American, the path is open … And even if I do not believe that the Blue Jays have a world serial club, everything suggests that the Toronto leaders will push to make the series through the big door. #Sauverleurjob
