That’s not really fair. Unlike the Flames who have little talent in the pipeline the Jays have a ton of it. We have lots of players in AA or AAA who will be here in the next year or two. They have just had some bad luck on the injury front on both sides of the ball. Also they are underperforming what their talent should be. Part of this is crappy bullpen but it is also clutch hitting. Despite clutch hitting not being a predictive thing the Jays even with their top five offense are bottom five in clutch hitting. A major part of that is Grichuk, Gurriel and Biggio.

Now hopefully it normalizes but I think it’s a sign of being a young team. Also a sign of missing Springer. Now I think their bullpen needs some reinforcements (from within or without) but I think just getting Springer back will be huge. I think with him we win this game tonight and several other during this rough streak.
