Blue Jays Must Improve With Runners In Scoring Position

Hitting with runners in scoring position is a problem for the Toronto Blue Jays. This is something they must improve on this season. It’s a clear indication that adjustments must be made while they missed scoring chances again and again last season, and in the postseason.

According to teamrankings.com, the Blue Jays ranked seventh in runners left in scoring position (3.20) and 18th in runners left on base per game (6.85).

It’s early in the season but the 2017 lineup will take some time to adjust without Edwin Encarnacion.
