"The Jays added Dylan Cease, Cody Ponce, Tyler Rogers, and Kazuma Okamoto this winter, while letting Bo Bichette, Chris Bassitt, Max Scherzer, and Seranthony Dominguez walk into free agency. There is still a chance that Bassitt and Scherzer could return this winter, although the odds are low, while Bichette and Dominguez enjoy their new deals with the Mets and White Sox, respectively."
"The most prominent name on the list is right-hander Chris Bassitt, whose three-year deal expired this past winter. He joins a long list of veteran relievers who are still looking for a new home as Spring Training draws near. Across three seasons with the Jays, Bassitt put forward a 3.89 ERA and a 4.13 FIP across 541 1/3 innings, posting a 1.313 WHIP."
Toronto nearly won the 2025 championship and enters spring training with several new additions and departures. The club signed Dylan Cease, Cody Ponce, Tyler Rogers, and Kazuma Okamoto, while Bo Bichette, Chris Bassitt, Max Scherzer, and Seranthony Dominguez left via free agency. Bichette and Dominguez signed with the Mets and White Sox, respectively, while Bassitt and Scherzer remain free agents with low odds of returning. Over 58 players appeared for the team last season and Erik Swanson retired. Bassitt posted a 3.89 ERA, 4.13 FIP and 1.313 WHIP across 541 1/3 innings and is expected to seek a short-term rotation role.
