By The Numbers: Springer on verge of Jays' futility record MORE:
Springer's slump has seen him moved out of the leadoff spot in the lineup, a position he's spent most of his career in.
“We’ll figure it out,” Springer said of being moved down to fifth. “I’m here for the team and I’ll figure it out.“I think we can all say we’re trying to score more consistently,” manager John Schneider added of the decision. “It wasn’t something reactionary. We’ve been thinking about how we can be more efficient.”
Former Baltimore Orioles slugger Chris Davis still owns that record for his infamous drought that saw him go 54 plate appearances without a hit, a streak that extended over two seasons.
