Jay missed the first half of the season with a hip injury and was ultimately shut down in late August for season-ending surgery on the hip. It seems safe to say those issues contributed to Jay hitting just .267/.311/.315 with a mere two barrels among 141 batted-ball events and a big fat goose egg in the home run category. It was essentially a lost season for Jay. He cleared 550 plate appearances as recently as 2018 and still puts bat to ball well enough, but at 35 years old, his most likely role on a major-league squad would be as a reserve outfielder. Jay may have to take a minor-league contract and prove himself all over again in spring training to even make a big-league roster.
