Look I agree he shouldn’t be hitting 4th but its literally a 2-week sample. You could probably look at half the cleanup hitters in the league and they’ve likely had similar stretches recently in their careers
Again the f***in box score,
Jays 12 hits 4 runs
Mariners 10 hits 8 runs
It should not take 12 hits to score 4 runs (and 1 was the ghost runner)
Need to be slugging way more than they currently are.
We all knew the game was over as soon as Barnes was in.
Although to be fair, Jays probably take another 3 innings to plate a run so it wouldn’t have mattered much.
Yet nobody really talks about Yordan being a potential HoF while Vladdy is considered a shoo-in
Gotta think Vlad’s ability/worth around the league is massively overinflated due to his connections and people watching him grow up. He really hasn’t lived up to his touted talent aside from some flashes of brilliance.
The box scores over the past few weeks have been kinda embarrassing. Outhitting the opposition like 2 to 1, but barely scraping wins.
Top 3 really gotta start hitting bombs, because right now it feels way too difficult to score runs.
