Alejandro Kirk - Inks extension with Toronto Kirk signed a five-year, $58 million contract with the Blue Jays on Saturday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Impact The deal will buy out Kirk's final year of arbitration in 2026 and then keep him with the team for an additional four years. Kirk has maintained a 109 wRC+ and improved his defense consistently over the course of his big-league career. He is set to be the Blue Jays' primary catcher in 2025.

Addison Barger - Slugs third homer of spring Barger went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Phillies.
Impact The 25-year-old has put together a strong camp, batting .367 (11-for-30) in 15 Grapefruit League appearances with three homers, two doubles and a 4:10 BB:K. While Barger appears ticketed for a bench role with Toronto to begin the season, he could see semi-regular playing time while bouncing between third base, the outfield corners and DH.

José Berríos - Sharp in final tune-up Berrios gave up one run on four hits and a walk over 5.1 innings in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Phillies. He struck out five.
Impact A Kyle Schwarber solo shot in the fifth inning was the only real blemish on the right-hander's line. Berrios built up to 84 pitches (53 strikes), and he wraps up his spring with a 2.18 ERA and 18:5 K:BB over 20.2 innings. His next trip to the mound will come Opening Day against the Orioles.

George Springer - Pops first spring homer Springer went 1-for-3 with a walk and a three-run home run in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Phillies.
Impact The veteran outfielder finally connected on his first long ball of the spring when he drove a Jose Ruiz offering over the center-field fence in the third inning. Springer is still batting just .114 (4-for-35) through 14 Grapefruit League appearances, but he has an 8:9 BB:K and might finally be getting his timing down with Opening Day less than a week away. He's set for an everyday role in an outfield corner, and it's unlikely he'll shift back to center field to help cover for the early-season absence of Daulton Varsho (shoulder).

Myles Straw - Might win roster spot Straw is in the running for a spot on the Blue Jays' Opening Day roster with Daulton Varsho (shoulder) set to begin the season on the injured list, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com repor...
Impact The 30-year-old outfielder was dealt to Toronto in January in a salary dump by Cleveland, but Straw might end up making a contribution with his new club. He's batting a blistering .414 (12-for-29) this spring with a 2:5 BB:K while playing his usual strong defense in center field, putting him in the running to help cover for Varsho for the first couple weeks of the season. Both of his primary competitors, Nathan Lukes and prospect Alan Roden, hit from the left side of the plate, so Straw would be a fit alongside either of them if the team elects to use a platoon to replace Varsho.

Nathan Lukes - Likely to have bench spot Lukes' chances of breaking camp with a bench spot on the Blue Jays' Opening Day roster have improved with Daulton Varsho (shoulder) set to begin the season on the injured list, Kee...
Impact Toronto will likely carry two center fielders to cover for Varsho, with Lukes' main competition for those spots being Myles Straw and top prospect Alan Roden. Lukes hasn't done much to bolster his case this spring, batting .206 (7-for-34) in Grapefruit League play with one homer, one steal and a 7:8 BB:K, but the Jays are already familiar with what the 30-year-old has to offer in a bench role. Varsho should be back in early April, so even if Lukes winds up getting a majority of the playing time in center to begin the schedule, his window for fantasy utility will close quickly.

Alan Roden - Could open season in majors Roden is firmly in the mix for a spot on the Blue Jays' Opening Day roster with Daulton Varsho (shoulder) set to begin the season on the injured list, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com re...
Impact The organization wants Roden, one of its top prospects, to get consistent playing time, but that might be possible in the majors for the first couple weeks of the year with Varsho needing a little more time to complete his recovery from shoulder surgery. Roden has had an outstanding camp at the plate, batting .391 (9-for-23) with a 6:3 K:BB, two doubles and two homers in 18 appearances, but he could be stretched defensively in center field. Nathan Lukes and Myles Straw are also candidates to help cover for Varsho in center, and two of that trio seem likely to be on Toronto's initial 26-man roster.

Daulton Varsho - IL stint on tap Varsho (shoulder) will begin the season on the injured list, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
Impact Varsho has been able to DH this spring with plenty of success, turning in a 1.126 OPS over 33 plate appearances. However, manager John Schneider has said that the 28-year-old would likely head to the IL if he hadn't been cleared to play in the field by Opening Day. Varsho has been throwing from 120 feet, but it doesn't seem like there's enough time to get him outfield-ready in time for the start of the season, so his 2025 debut will be delayed until at least April 6. Until then, Nathan Lukes will likely serve as Toronto's center fielder.
