The Toronto Blue Jays have been off to a rough start to the season where they rank among the worst in the league in multiple categories such as run per game, on base percentage and batting average.
The Blue Jays have struggled immensely on offense with most of their team off to a slow start. The Jays are currently averaging 3.62 runs per game which is tied for 24th in the league, .652 on base percentage which puts them 23rd and .212 batting average which is 25th best in the league.
The majority of the Blue Jays have been struggling but none more than Dalton Varsho, Alejandro Kirk and Kevin Kiermaier, the three players have a combined .136 batting average. To add to that, Kirk also leads the league with 4 doubles plays grounded into.
The Blue Jays need more from everyone, offensively. But no matter how productive Vladdy and Bo are, no team can expect to have a decent offense with multiple black holes in their lineup... 🥶

Must read on Blue Jays Insider
The one bright spot in the Blue jays lineup so far this season has been Justin Turner who has been proving he still has a lot of baseball left him as he has been playing great.
It will be interesting to see what will get the Blue Jays offense going this season, if anything at all.
