The Toronto Blue Jays struggled during the offseason to secure star free agents, and it appears they may miss the chance to extend Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s contract. Nevertheless, they made some notable signings, including a significant five-year deal for outfielder Anthony Santander worth $92.5MM. Santander, coming off a career year, is expected to add power to a team that only hit 156 home runs in 2024. Despite his mixed hitting profile, his ability to generate walks and strong power potential were key factors in the Blue Jays' recruiting efforts.
The Blue Jays made a hefty $92.5MM investment in Anthony Santander, expecting him to enhance their power after a disappointing offensive 2024 season.
Despite the concerns over his low batting average and OBP, Santander's above-average walk rate and power potential will help balance the Jays' lineup.
