The 2015 Blue Jays may not be the 1927 Yankees of “Murderer’s Row” fame, but they have been far and away the most potent offence in the major leagues.
Through their opening 131 games, the Jays have scored 720 runs which is 90 runs more than the runner-up New York Yankees and if they maintain their pace, they will end the season with 890 runs. They also lead the big leagues in home runs with 184.
The Jays lineup features the trio of Josh Donaldson, Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion and they have combined to mash 97 home runs — Donaldson with 36 followed by Bautista, 31, and Encarnacion, 30.
