Kevin Kiermaier is a 33-year-old , left-handed hitter, and center fielder . Of all the things that happened this off-season, the team re-signing Kevin must be one of the more surprising things . Last year was his first with the Jays after 10 seasons with the Rays. And he had a season that had to be in the 75th percentile of what any of us could have expected. Well, half the season was far better than we could have expected. From June 1st to Aug 31, he hit .219/.296/.
Or more that having both Kiermaier and Varsho will have more value than just having Varsho in center. But I still feel that having Varsho in the center and a bigger bat in the left is. I feel that adding to the offence was more important than keeping the defence at the great level it was last year. I’ve been wrong before, but failing to come up with a top-40 hit suggests that you shouldn’t keep recording with the same band.
