With offseason additions, Blue Jays improve DH, defensive depth
The 2013 Blue Jays are the betting favorites after signing Josh Johnson, Mark Buehrle, José Reyes and Emilio Bonifácio with the Marlins.
The Toronto Blue Jays have made some changes to their roster in the offseason. Brandon Belt is a veteran with two World Series rings. The team is trying to improve its chances of making the postseason. The Blue Jay's roster is not as flashy as in 2013, but it's different. They are trying for a World Cup. Their team has improved its defense. It's a rebranding for the team. Toronto missed out on the playoffs in 2021 and in 22. In the past, they have won the World Championship in 2000. This time they are looking for something different, and they're trying a different approach.
Alejandro Kirk's offensive numbers were good in the first half of his career, but his second half was average. He played 140 games last season. The Blue Jays need him to be at his best down the stretch and into October.
