DUNEDIN, FLA.—Randal Grichuk has hit leadoff 21 times in his entire Major League Baseball career. Blue Jay Randal Grichuk hasn’t had much experience in the leadoff spot — but he’s willing to give it a shot. And, at minimum, in Grichuk the Jays have a dangerous, if streaky, bat. But when you put somebody in the leadoff, he’s got to be comfortable — ‘OK, I want it, I want to do it.’ So I’ve got to have that conversation with him. “I told him that, ultimately, as long as I’m in the lineup I’m good,’’ Grichuk made clear later.
