What happened to the Blue Jays 2026 season?

211 Upvotes

As someone who doesn't watch much baseball, I feel the need to ask. Like in the NBA, it's really rare for a contender to suddenly fall off after less than a year.

We're already 100+ games into a season. What's causing the Blue Jays to be last in their division and far from a playoff spot? Why are they struggling? Did Bo Bichette walking in free agency play a role in this?

Derek Hill throws out Shohei Ohtani out at 2B for the 3rd out. Eliezer Alfonzo’s run does not score because he didnt touch home before the out occurred.
