I think the sentiment here is in playoffs, when the opposition was continually pitching down and away and JD was the only guy to adjust and go opposite field. IIRC JD even voiced his displeasure with guys not adjusting to the way they're being pitched in the Cleveland series.
I'm with you for the most part on this offense, but it's hard to argue that the offense didn't need to make adjustments in that series. The star power of the Jays, IMO, sometimes got in the way of them adjusting and taking what they're being given.
