So to even have him just be able to be a bit more jovial, to not have to slam a bat or want to slam a bat, to put the jacket on, to mess around with people a little bit more, I do think that means something.

Could it turn into nothing?

Definitely possible.

But sometimes that's all that a player of his caliber and his talent needs to get going.

It's just a little more confidence because he clearly is a bit of a rhythm confidence player.

That's what's helped him at times, I think, go through some of the hotter streaks of recent memory in Blue Jays history and some of the colder streaks for a guy at least of his caliber.

And so I think that, you know, if you can get him

just thinking he's the man a little bit more and seeing that he's the man a little bit more, it might end up translating forward.

It'll be interesting to see, though.

I feel like you never know when a guy's getting hot until two weeks later and you're right in the middle of it.

So I think a couple things.

They have been hit really hard injury-wise on the pitching side.

Daniel Palencia is on the injured list now.

He closed out the WBC, and at times I think he's one of the more electric closers.

In the National League, their starters, whether it's a Tyone or a Boyd or a Cabrera or Imanaga, they've had guys not necessarily...

be able to pitch completely regular seasons so far.

So that's going to hurt you at any time.

But the streakiness, I think, really lies in some of the streakiness of their offense.

Your PCA is really, really hot right now.

He's, you know, over the last year and a half, really just kind of rode an aggressive wave of hot streaks and cold streaks as much as maybe any player in Major League Baseball, honestly.
