the problem I have with the jays lineup showed up last year too. Not enough good LH bats so pitchers can get in a groove with their off speed and breaking balls going away form the RH batters. No LH batters to keep them honest and then not enough just good "hitters" who are good at keeping the ball in play. Too many of the Jays hitters look for the home run and don't adjust to what the pitcher is doing and just put the ball in play.
Its been a flawed offence for a while. What they did last year was an anamoly that KC also exposed. Pitch them the right way and you can get around power.
