AL Wild Card Series: Blue Jays At Rays
Exactly zero players remain from #8 seed Toronto's last playoff team in 2016, but out of all the upheaval grew a young, talented offensive team (with great baseball lineage) . #1 seed Tampa Bay, who also knows about turnover, won an AL-best 40 games despite a mediocre lineup (unless you count Brandon Lowe. Which I don't.) They rode their 3.56 team ERA to the playoffs, but is that enough to outlast a Toronto team that played them tough in 2020?
