Some major drama queens in here lol.

Yes its an ugly stretch, but we just won 6 in a row prior to this. Ebbs and flows. We are not in jeopardy of losing the division yet.

Although they really need to salvage a win tomorrow or things could get tight.

Ya its getting scary but it was to be expected.  None of us expected this team to win the AL running away.  Still in a great spot to clinch the AL and let's hope we start with a win today.

Since when do we have the best offense in baseball?

Batting average now is all of a sudden important when determining the best offence in baseball lol. 

On a serious note though, Jays have overall been a good offensive team this season. Tied for 4th with the Mariners in wRC+ with 112 and have the lowest K% rate out of all MLB teams. In terms of power, they're middle of the pack, which is still decent. Losing Bo, with Vladdy struggling and starting Lukes pretty much everyday isn't helping. This lineup relies on stringing together a bunch of base hits to score runs, which can be an issue when most of the lineup is struggling and there is no major power output. As well, against elite pitchers, it's tough to score runs that way as well. 

Gotta hope Bo comes back for the start of the Postseason, Vladdy starts to mash the ball more and Santander can maybe go on a stretch for a couple of weeks where the baseball looks like a beach ball at the plate.

Jays just need to take it one game at a time. Win today and heading into the final week, they can still be 2 or 3 games ahead of the Yankees, which is a good spot to be in with only 6 games left.

I said that earlier in the thread, the ebbs and flows of a 162 grind.

I brought up fWAR and wRC+, not batting average, meat?

I actually defended you from that troll but I guess comprehension is not your strong suit and you deserved being called an idiot
