Jon Jay finished 2-for-3 with a walk, double, home run, four RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's win against the Cubs. Jay's second four-RBI game of the season featured his first homer since July 3. The three-run blast off James Russell in the seventh expanded St. Louis' lead to 6-1, the game's final score. Jay is batting .273 with six homers and 54 RBI through 121 games.

Jon Jay finished 3-for-4 with two doubles in Friday's loss to the Cubs. Jay is now hitting .405 (17-for-42) over his last 10 games. The 28-year-old outfielder doesn't provide much in the way of pop or speed and isn't nearly as interesting now that he's no longer the leadoff man, but those looking for a fourth or fifth outfielder in mixed fantasy leagues could do worse.

Jon Jay went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI and three runs scored in the rout of the Pirates on Thursday. Since he doesn't hit leadoff any longer, Jay hadn't scored multiple runs in a game in nearly two months. He entered the night with just two runs scored and one RBI in 13 games since the All-Star break, even though he was hitting .278 in that span.

Jay is batting just .250/.327/.346 in 100 games this season and he has been especially awful against left-handed pitching.

Jon Jay had a nice night at the dish in Saturday's loss to the Cubs, going 4-for-5 with a double, RBI and a run scored. Even with the four-hit effort, Jay is still hitting a disappointing .249/.327/.341 with five homers and three stolen bases through 90 games. If he continues to struggle, he could very easily be replaced by Oscar Taveras in the second half of the season once he completely recovers from his ankle injury.
