I have been a fan of the Jays for a good 20 years now. Frankly this season, I have never witnessed so many boring Jays games in my life compared to any other. The lack off offence this team has makes them nearly unbearable to watch.
I live in Toronto, which is perhaps the most exciting city in all of Canada. However I decided to stay in tonight (Friday evening), and watch the Jays play Tampa Bay. What a mistake that was. The game lasted just over 2 hours. The Jays tallied a whopping 4 hits, and overall the game had no excitement (minus a Lind homerun) whatsoever from a Jays standpoint. Talk about a waste of time.
This is not an isolated game. The Jays have played boring baseball all season. They on average have been one of the quickest start to finish teams in baseball all season, with average game times just over 2 hours. The Jays combination of great pitching and terrible hitting makes for very boring baseball.
A perfect example of how boring this team is there regular number three hitter, Alex (Bust) Rios. Alex has a grand total of 4 homeruns so far this year. He is a prime example that nothing will happen when the Jays get runners on base or in scoring position, which ultimately leads to boring baseball.
It isn’t a coincidence that attendance is down this year. The Jays are not fun to watch.
