Danny Jansen turns 29 in April. He’s played of the last six seasons for the Blue Jays. When he came up to the Jays, we were told he would be a bat-first catcher, but for his first four seasons, he showed us a very good glove and not much of a bat. But we’ve seen the bat we were promised over the last two years. He hit .242/.324/.493 with 32 home runs in 158 games, good for a 127 OPS+ and a 4.3 bWAR.
predicts that Danny will play in 102 games, hit 17 home runs, with a .243/.322/.448 line. ZiPS says 88 games, 15 home runs, .244/.327/.473 line. Steamer 84 games, 16 home runs, .234/.314/.449.
