Blue Jays need to drop George Springer in one last lineup tweak

With 10 games left and now sitting a half-game back of the 2nd Wild Card spot, the Blue Jays need to make one last lineup tweak at the top, even if it’s looking pretty clear that Charlie Montoyo was hoping he wouldn’t have to.

While I admire that George Springer is playing through an injury to help the Blue Jays in their quest for the postseason, his presence hasn’t been all that helpful. The 32 year old has really been struggling at the plate since his latest return from the IL, slashing just .153/.254/.237 with only one home run and two RBI over his last 15 games.
