Despite being a mainstay in the Toronto lineup all season, Clement has delivered mediocre counting numbers (49 runs, 39 RBI, nine home runs and four steals). He continues to provide most of his fantasy value in the batting-average category, with his .284 mark good for 21st among all qualified hitters this season.

Blue Jays' Ernie Clement: Posts steal Saturday
Clement went 1-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Saturday's 8-7 loss to the Padres.
Clement extended his hitting streak to six games with the effort. This was also his first steal since May 22 and his first attempt since June 18, which suggests the hip injury that bothered him at times in June is no longer a concern. Clement is not a huge speed threat -- he's just 3-for-4 on steal attempts this year and totaled just six during the regular season in 2025 -- but he's been solid all around with a .297 average, .748 OPS, seven home runs, 30 RBI, 41 runs scored, 23 doubles and one triple over 92 contests.

Clement has gone 15-for-44 (.341) over his last 12 games since shaking off a hip issue that cost him some time in late June.

Clement has been atop the lineup for the last two games, though it's unclear if he'll stay there once George Springer rejoins the starting nine.
