Two things are instantly made abundantly clear when looking at this Blue Jays lineup. First, the Jays will miss Daulton Varsho, who is slated to begin the 2025 season on the IL after undergoing shoulder surgery. Second, this team needs to continue to add bats if they want to seriously compete.

To inject more power into the lineup, the Toronto Blue Jays signed Venezuelan outfielder Anthony Santander to a five-year, $92.5-million deal, with multiple deferrals and player options.
