Kendrys Morales came to the Toronto Blue Jays with some big shoes to fill in Edwin Encarnacion and luckily for the Blue Jays, Justin Smoak filled that hole that was left by Encarnacion. Morales was expected to fill the void left by Encarnacion and some even thought he could be close to Encarnacion levels of power at the Rogers Centre. After all, in a down season, Morales was still in the top 10 for exit velocity. All of the expectations didn’t follow through as he finished with a wRC+ of 97. He did have a 72 wRC+ in 2014, but that was the year he signed post MLB draft.
Blue Jays: Kendrys Morales 2017 appears to be an outlier
