"With Seranthony Dominguez now off the market (and Bo Bichette long gone), Isiah Kiner-Falefa is arguably the best Toronto Blue Jays' player from the 2025 roster who remains lingering in free agency. Kiner-Falefa is among the most versatile utility players in the league, and now that players like Bichette, Jorge Polanco, Ha-Seong Kim, and Alex Bregman have all signed, he's one the best infielders still available."
"It won't register nearly as painful as the loss of Bichette, but losing Kiner-Falefa will sting, as he was a valuable player in the Blue Jays' World Series run last year. After arriving as a waiver pickup from the Pittsburgh Pirates - the same team who acquired him the Jays at the 2024 trade deadline - he posted a 72 wRC+ in Toronto while playing multiple games at second base, third base, and shortstop."
Isiah Kiner-Falefa remains a notable free agent from the 2025 Blue Jays roster and ranks among the most versatile utility infielders available. Multiple teams are reportedly pursuing him and he has been taking virtual meetings. Toronto's infield appears crowded after signing Kazuma Okamoto, with Andrés Giménez projected at short and Ernie Clement likely at second, plus utility options Addison Barger and Davis Schneider. Kiner-Falefa contributed across second, third and short after a waiver pickup from Pittsburgh, posting a 72 wRC+ in Toronto, though he struggled in the postseason and famously fell just short in Game 7.
