While writing these lines, the Jays are 7W-8L and last in the AL East.

I know, I know, it's still early. This is the Jays' motto.

For those who have watched some or all of the games so far, what are your thoughts about the team, your projections?

I don’t perceive the thirst for wins they once had, mainly when Teoscar and Gurriel Jr. were still in TO.

I think the players might be aware that the team might not be good enough (offensively) and is on the brink of a rebuild without many ingredients for a promising future; they might have a tough time weathering a cold streak as a result. Looking back it's amazing how much the front office took run production and supporting Vladdy (e.g., protection, friends on the bench, coaching) for granted and how costly that's been

Based on the last couple of seasons, I was expecting Vladdy, Bichette, Davis the mustache, and even Kirk to be putting the ball over the fence a bit more often.
