It's April 20th. I'm Corey with The Story. This is MLB News Today, driven by AI and built for baseball fans. The Toronto Blue Jays are drowning in injuries right now, and Alfield or Nathan Loose has been battling vertigo since spring training, which explains, his rough start at the plate three hits in 32 abats. Doctors found crystals in his inner ear out of place, causing dizziness and nausea, but he's on medication and in therapy to fix it and the medical. Staff cleared him to keep playing. That vertigo hits hard. Imagine swinging at 95 mile per hour fastballs while the world spins, yet Luke's push-through with coaching staffs. Trust. Lately, he's turning it around, grabbing half his season's hits in their last loss plus some slick defensive plays, which the team desperately needs. Amid their league worst win total, meanwhile, center-fielder Dalton Varsho got yanked from the lineup just before a game, leaving Vladimir Guerrero, Jr. as their only holdover

stat. Leader from last year, but with baseball's long grind ahead, a healthy streak could flip this script.
