They need to start putting together some patient at bats.

We've actually been getting decent production everyone except Edwin and Jose over the last few games.

I guess he would slot in to our already over used bullpen.

It's early, but this has been alarming to me. When Jose is at his best he's not chasing pitches outside of the zone and taking a lot of walks. He also rarely if ever misses fastballs in the strike zone.

Last year he faced similar struggles early in the year and bounced back nicely before his injury. I'm hoping his season trajectory bounces back in a similar fashion because the Jays sorely need the middle of the lineup to start producing.

I kind of like the look of that lineup. Top of the order is a bit wonky but seems to be more balance throughout.

Can't hurt though, really. Clearly they need a shakeup and good on Gibby for making changes.

It kind of makes sense, for now, putting Lind at #2 because he's been getting on base quite regularly. It hasn't been the way he wanted to but a base is a base. Give Joey Bats some motivation to pay attention at the plate by having 1-2 runners on base..
