Duuuude, WTF?
If Vlad, Kirk and Manoah were contributing like they did last year the Jays would easily have 4-5 more wins.
I don't want to fat shame, but they are pro athletes and you have to wonder if the (waaaaay too many) extra pounds have anything to do with the struggles.

The Vlad thing is bizarre, he is hitting the ball, just into the ground. It tells me a couple things, pitchers are exploiting some weakness in Vlads approach and that he is unable to make an adjustment. I would believe the wrist and knee thing affecting his swing except for the fact that staff have been fine putting guys on the IL because of small injuries, Bo’s thumb, Belt hammy etc. it’s just automatic right now that he will hit a ground ball. At least the strike outs are down?
