Considering how cold the collective bats were for the first 6 weeks or so, the following stats may surprise a lot of people (they sure surprised me). Going into today's action, the Jays batting stacks up like this:
AVG: 3rd
OBP: 2nd
SLG: 2nd
OBP: 1st
(for MLB)
IMO, runs are a more important stat, as that is what the purpose of the offense is. And for runs scored, the Jays rank 6th, though if you factor-in games played, they are 4th.
All in all, pretty damn impressive how quickly they have pulled the numbers back up to where they should be.
