But, you know, having to move these guys around, move them up in the order, has never been a good thing.
But when you look at the guys that they're expecting to come back and help, Addison Barger and Alejandro Kirk, Barger is hitting .045 so far, 1 for 22, and Kirk is hitting .150, 3 for 20.
So there's not going to be a miracle there.
where they come back in the lineup and provide what's needed.
But yeah, in terms of where they are at two games under .500, any team that's going to make the postseason needs to at least go through the five-man rotation winning those five games.
And the Jays' longest win streak is four so far, so they haven't even done that much.
Got a long way to go, but things are looking up.
And when the Habs get out of the way, people will start paying attention to baseball.
And they'll go, holy, these guys are defending champs.
Consider this stat for the last 13 games.
They're 8-5 in the last 13 games.
They're 8-0 when allowing two runs or fewer to an opponent, and they're 0-5 when allowing three runs or more.
Three runs, that's not a lot of runs.
They need to be winning games 6-4, 6-5, and they haven't won a game where they've allowed four runs since May 2nd.
So it's a struggle, and you talked about the defense and the importance of the defense.
I think the defense is more important to pitching than we imagine.
I mean, the pitching is there, the arms are there.
We've got Max Scherzer trying to get his 55 innings so he can start getting those million-dollar bonuses every 10 innings.
But I would bet against that at this point.
But, you know, you look at the defense and the outfield defense, that isn't anywhere close to where it's been.
