  1. Refreshing to see that at 3B
  2. I get the defense didn’t do him any favours. But the whole point of the opener was to avoid the top of the lineup and not face Trout. He faced Trout anyway on 2 hits, a walk, and two more batted balls in play, in just half an inning.. so can’t really avoid blame there.
  3. Can we have like.. 9 openers before Zeuch gets his turn next time?
  4. Finally done work. I see we’re still tied, that’s good.
  5. I’m not asking for much, just give hot bats more ABs. No need to cycle through cold hitters into the DH slot like we’re trying to get everyone to participate like the YMCA. I’m not saying DFA Tellez, just no need to give him everyday playing time. I get the sense the Jays interest in Michael Brantley weren’t just rumours, he would’ve made some sense in this lineup.
  6. I know it's small sample size, but currently the Blue Jays are ranked 23rd in baseball with 77 wRC+, 24th in offensive rating, 23rd in OBP, 23rd in wOBA, 20th in strikeouts, When they hit the ball it's been very succesful: 13th in barrel %, 6th in hard hit%, 7th in average exit velo. The Jays were projected to be a top offensive team with Springer, so the bats are definitely off to a slow start. The best positions have been 1B (5th - Thanks Vlad), 2B (9th), SS (13th), 3B (14th). The Jay are tied with the Pirates for last in baseball with -0.3 WAR at their DH position with more than half the plate appearances coming from Rowdy Tellez and Joe Panik. They're also tied for 22nd at Outfield (LF+RF+CF) and 27th at Catcher. I'm not too worried about outfield as Springer will return eventually and Gurriel + Teoscar are streaky, but having the worst DH production in baseball doesn't make much sense for a team trying to make the post-season.
