a rough stretch

About as cold as the numbers can push it. 2-5 over 7 games. That leaves a mark. Also weighing on the score: dropped last night by 3 and the temperature took a hit.

Blue Jays News

The Toronto Blue Jays took a step back on Saturday, losing 7-4 to the Minnesota Twins and losing George Springer to a left toe fracture in the process. After a promising offensive explosion just a day prior, the bats fell silent as Eric Lauer struggled mightily on the mound, recording five walks, his worst showing since 2018. With a record now sitting at 6-8, the injury bug continues to plague this team, raising questions about their ability to stay competitive in a tight division. While Davis Schneider and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. continue to swing hot bats, the overall vibe is dampened by inconsistency and injuries, as the Blue Jays face an uphill battle to regain momentum. Next up, they’ll have to rally without their leadoff man against the same Twins, hoping to turn the tide before the situation becomes dire.
