The Blue Jays will arrive at Camden Yards perched atop the AL East. Baltimore hoped to compete for a division crown again this season, but plenty has gone wrong since Tyler O’Neill smacked his sixth-consecutive Opening Day home run in Toronto.
The Jays’ success has come despite a lackluster season from former Oriole Anthony Santander. Santander currently sits on the 60-day injured list with left shoulder inflammation. The slugger slashed a disappointing .179/.273/.304 over 50 games before hitting the IL. The 30-year-old is in the first of a five year, $92.5 million contract.
So how are the Jays doing this?
