Sitting at 39 Home Runs, Edwin is currently 1 HR away with only one regular season game left. With approximately 4 plate appearances left (5 if he is lucky), Encarnacion will have to utilize what little time he has left. Fellow Blue Jays Josh Donaldson* (41) and Jose Bautista (40) have already reached the 40 mark, after having an incredible season and terrifying bullpens everywhere. The Blue Jays will face a below average Rays team and should hope to capitalize on mediocre pitching and the push to end the regular season strong before playoffs.

*If Donaldson is voted AL MVP this year, it will mark the fourth MVP in Toronto sports history behind Babe Pratt, Ted Kennedy and George Bell.

The Blue Jays play the Rays at 3:10 PM today Eastern time at Tropicana Field.
