Not to mention Bautista is clearly hurt, which is preventing him from running the bases aggressively same thing with Lind.

Jays biggest problem is the lack of depth, when injuries happen... this absolutely de-rails the team.

Jays have to push through this crappy segment and hope they are not to far out it until they are healthy.
