Stays hot Tuesday Springer went 2-for-4 with a double and a stolen base in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Yankees.

Impact The Blue Jays managed only five hits in total on the night, so Springer's success at the plate didn't result in any real offense. The veteran outfielder has multiple hits in four straight games, and he's come galloping out of the gate with a .409/.458/.818 slash line, two home runs, one steal, four RBI and five runs through 24 plate appearances.

Socks second homer Springer went 3-for-5 with a double, a home run and three RBI in Monday's 3-0 win over the Yankees.

Impact The veteran outfielder gave Alek Manoah and the Toronto bullpen all the offensive support they would need on the night with his two-run shot off Jameson Taillon in the third inning, but Springer tacked on an insurance tally with a seventh-inning double anyway. He's off to a blistering start to 2022, going 7-for-18 (.389) through four games with two doubles, two homers, four RBI and five runs scored.

Launches first homer of 2022 Springer went 2-for-5 with a double and a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the Rangers.

Impact Things were looking good for Toronto when Springer led off the bottom of the first by taking Spencer Howard deep, but the bullpen fell apart after Hyun-Jin Ryu (hamstring) had to make an early exit. Springer got the start at DH in this one, a role he might handle fairly frequently as the Blue Jays try to keep him healthy, but he's looked just fine at the plate so far by going 4-for-13 through three games with four runs scored.

Clubs first spring homer Springer went 2-for-2 with a walk, a solo home run and a second run scored in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers.

Impact Facing journeyman right-hander Chase Anderson in the fifth inning, Springer drove a pitch on the outer half of the plate over the fence in right-center field for his first homer of the spring. The veteran outfielder's main goal in 2022 is to stay healthy, but when he was on the field last year he was plenty productive, as Springer slashed .264/.352/.555 with 22 homers and 50 RBI in only 78 games during his first campaign with Toronto.

Impact "I swear to God, he's fine, he's 100 percent," manager Charlie Montoyo said prior to Sunday's game. "He knows what he's doing. We're going to communicate with the players and see how they feel... He'll play soon. Just not today or tomorrow." Springer has been getting at-bats on back fields and took batting practice prior to Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Pirates, and given the injuries he dealt with last season in his first campaign with the Jays, the club's caution with his spring workload is understandable.
