Game 4: 7.2 IP, 10 hits, 5 ER (tough game where your starter goes 0.1 IP)
Game 5: 3.2 IP, 4 hits, 2 ER
Game 6: 3.0 IP, 3 hits, 2 ER

Overall 22.2 IP, and 9 ER against.

So not the greatest for sure but most of the problems over the last two games have been Lawrence, who isn't even pitching if they Jays don't have 2 extra innings games in the first week, need to use up the entire bullpen due to Liriano only going an inning.

Rest of the staff has been pretty good outside of the Liriano game.

Bats are easily the bigger problem IMO.

3 losses already this year and looking like they have the past two seasons. it's a big concern. Offence always takes a while to come around, you can't be losing games in the bullpen while the offence starts to take shape.
