It's no surprise that he's done for the year, as the Blue Jays are far out of the playoff chase. Bautista finishes the year with numbers that are a bit disappointing by his own standards but very good for the majority of major leaguers. He slashed .259/.358/.498, with 28 home runs, 73 RBI, and 82 runs in just 118 games.","date":"Wed Sep 4"},"fullName":"Jose Bautista","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"A left wrist injury he suffered on a swing during a July 16 game derailed the most impressive power streak in baseball the past half-decade: From Sept. 1, 2009, through July 16, 2012, Bautista hit a major league-leading 134 home runs, 34 more than anyone else. Unfortunately, that wrist issue dogged the slugger for the rest of the year, as he aggravated the problem two games into an August return, eventually succumbing to season-ending surgery. Bautista said in January that he has fully healed, but his spring might prove the ultimate test, specifically whether the injury has sapped any of his power. If it fully returns, he'll benefit from the Blue Jays' substantial lineup upgrades in the Nos. 1-2 spots -- Jose Reyes and Melky Cabrera combined had an on-base percentage 59 points higher than what the Blue Jays got out of those two spots in 2012 -- and perhaps make another run at top-10-overall status. Keep careful watch on his March.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"positionRank":29}
