The Blue Jays are enduring the worst era of their history.
Throughout human history, several theories on multiple timelines and universes have been proposed. Mankind has always been able to wonder whether they are living in a better or worse timeframe thanks to these kinds of conjectures. Still, if the idea holds water, the Toronto Blue Jays are currently experiencing what may be the darkest era of their history.
The Blue Jays have only managed three victories out of six games in their last two series against the Chicago White Sox and the Tampa Bay Rays, failing to play up to their full ability. Toronto needed to win this four-game series against Detroit in order to even consider getting out of a losing streak. Fortunately, the Blue Jays overcame Comerica Park’s internet service difficulty and scored nine runs against the Detroit Tigers, giving up just one run to start the series in a promising manner.
But those feelings of optimism did not last for the next two games. The Tigers took advantage of Toronto’s pitching rather quickly in both games, much to the dismay of the Blue Jays, who were unable to muster more than three runs on Friday and Saturday. If this series taught us anything, it’s that the Blue Jays are in far more serious peril than they realized.
If the Blue Jays didn’t make any changes, they never had a chance to beat the ever-dominant and self-assured Tigers. Regretfully, Toronto failed to adjust sufficiently to save itself or demonstrate that they could overcome all obstacles. The Blue Jays’ inexorable two-game losing streak was caused by their hurried plate approaches and subpar situational hitting. Toronto failed to conduct a thorough opponent analysis and thus revealed all of its weaknesses.
