Luck.is definitely not on this teams side.

The jays have the 4th best wRC+ in the majors but the 22nd best wRC+ with RISP.

They can fricken hit, it's just not happening as often when there is chances to score runs.

So frustrating.
I wonder if some of it is approach with how close these games have been.

They tend to be way more patient and take what the pitcher gives them overall early in games and without RISP.

But with RISP...especially late in close games...they are squeezing the bat a little tighter, swinging harder, and being a bit less patient in the approach.

One of those things where they need to just take a step back and remember less is probably more in those scenarios.
