    Blue Jays' George Springer: Pops first spring homer

    George Springer went 1-for-3 with a walk and a three-run home run in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Phillies.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).

    Blue Jays' George Springer: Not concerned with spring numbers

    George Springer says he feels good despite batting .107 (3-for-28) this spring with zero home runs, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports. "I feel great, actually," Springer said. "For me, it's about the process. It's not about the results. I want to make sure that I'm swinging at the right pitches and getting my swing off. Yeah, obviously everyone would like to see the ball hit the grass, but for me specifically, I'm working on the mechanical side of it."While the 35-year-old isn't concerned about his lack of results in camp, fantasy investors likely are. Springer's .674 OPS and 50.7 percent groundball rate last season were career worsts, and it wasn't due to simple bad luck as his average exit velocity, max exit velocity and bat speed all showed declines. If he can't turn things around quickly to begin the regular season, the Toronto Blue Jays will have to give serious thought to handing some of his playing time to younger options, such as prospect Alan Roden.

    Blue Jays' George Springer: Might bat lower in order in 2025

    Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider indicated Thursday that George Springer might not be his leadoff hitter in 2025, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports.The overwhelming majority of Springer's starts since joining the Blue Jays have come from the leadoff spot and Schneider didn't dismiss using the outfielder there again this season, but he's also considering Bo Bichette for the top of the batting order, "depending on who we're facing." Vladimir Guerrero and Anthony Santander are slated to hit second and third, respectively, while Schneider mentioned leadoff and cleanup as options for Bichette. It's possible Springer will be used in whichever of those two spots Bichette doesn't occupy.

    Blue Jays' George Springer: Could see time in left field

    Manager John Schneider said Wednesday that George Springer might see some playing time in left field this season, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.Springer has played just three innings in left field at the major-league level and those came back in 2018. However, like Springer, Anthony Santander has also primarily been a right fielder in his career, so Springer could accommodate him some days by shifting to left. Schneider also noted that Springer is a prime candidate to bat leadoff in 2025, which is where he's spent the overwhelming majority of his time with Toronto.
