The Toronto Blue Jays have been missing power this season as they cannot seem to hit homeruns and their top power prospect is struggling in the minors as well as Orelvis Martinez is off to a tough start to the year.
The Blue Jays have looked great to start the season as their pitching and all around hitting has been very solid but it is their power hitting that has struggled as they have very few homeruns on the season.
Blue Jays top prospect Orelvis Martinez is in trouble
Martinez finally got called for the first time last season but within two games in the big leagues he was suspended for 80 games due to testing positive for PEDs which ended up having missing the majority of the 2024 season.
This season the Blue Jays sent him to Triple-A to start the season and he has been off to a horrible start as he currently has a 0.71 batting average with 2 hits and 2 RBIs in 28 at bats on the season.

Fans have been in disbelief over how poorly Martinez has been playing for the Bisons even though he hit his first homerun of the season a few days ago that went 427 ft.

Hopefully Martinez can figure out a way to pick things up because at this rate he will definitely not be getting a call from the Blue Jays anytime soon.
