The team that never arrived said goodbye—in a whisper.
The Blue Jays may have been a fashionable pick among pundits for a few years, but they are a third-place team that has won nothing and is run by a manager who badly revealed his lack of experience.
For a third straight trip to the postseason—and having qualified only as a third-, second- and third-place team—Toronto went out without winning a game. A 2–0 loss to the Twins completed a two-game ouster in the wild-card round in which it scored one run. The Jays have lost six straight postseason games, scoring two runs or less in five of them and the other the result of blowing an 8–1 lead.
