Player Outlook
Kevin Kiermaier proved to be a good fit in Toronto last season and will return to the club on a one-year, $10 million deal for 2024. While not known for his durability, Kiermaier appeared in 129 games last season, matching the second-highest total of his career. His .419 SLG was his highest mark since 2017 and Kiermaier provided value on the bases, swiping 14 bags in 15 tries. He won a Gold Glove in center field last season at 33 years old -- his fourth Gold Glove -- and added multiple catches to his silly career highlight reel. That defense will keep him on the field, and Kiermaier handles himself well enough against lefty pitching to avoid a strict platoon, though health remains a big concern. If he manages to stay upright, a return to double-digit homers and steals is not out of the question.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: On base four times Wednesday

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier went 3-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Wednesday's loss to the Yankees. The veteran center fielder kept flipping the lineup over from the ninth slot in the order as he produced just his second multi-hit performance of the season. Kiermaier's had a slow start to the season at the plate but he's begun to come around, batting .296 (8-for-27) over his last 10 games with a double, a steal, an RBI and four runs scored. His strong-side platoon role and his spot at the bottom of the batting order limit his fantasy appeal, but Kiermaier still has some value in AL-only formats.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Part-time role

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier is not in Saturday's lineup against the Rockies. While Kiermaier generally sits against lefties, he's started to sit against some righties this week, with Davis Schneider picking up starts in left field in three of the last five games (all against right-handed starters) and Daulton Varsho shifting over to center field. Kiermaier is batting .143 with a 36.8 percent strikeout rate.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Steps out of lineup Tuesday

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier is not in the Blue Jays' starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners. Despite facing Rays right-hander George Kirby, the Blue Jays will keep Kiermaier in the dugout for Tuesday's game and start Daulton Varsho in center field. Kiermaier has struggled to make contact early in the season, slashing .107/.194/.107 with two RBI and two stolen bases while striking out 11 times over 31 plate appearances.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Swipes second bag

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier went 1-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Monday's win over the Mariners. It's the second steal of the season for the veteran center fielder, who's otherwise had a tough start to 2024. Kiermaier has been a fixture in the lineup against right-handed pitching, as expected, but he's hitting just .107 (3-for-28) through 10 games and is still looking for his first extra-base hit.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Back in lineup Saturday

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier (back) will start in center field and bat ninth in Saturday's game against the Yankees. Kiermaier scratched from the lineup ahead of Friday's 3-0 win due to lower-back tightness, but the day off was all he needed to move past the issue. He has struggled from the plate to start the season, going 1-for-18 with one RBI, two walks and six strikeouts.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Scratched with back issue

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier was scratched from Friday's lineup against the Yankees due to lower-back tightness. Kiermaier was slated to start in center field Friday, per usual, but he'll instead be on the bench due to the back issue. The veteran outfielder should be considered day-to-day. Daulton Varsho will shift to center field while Davis Schneider moves out to left, with Cavan Biggio entering the lineup at second base.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Absent from lineup

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier is out of the lineup Sunday versus the Rays. Kiermaier started the first three games of the season despite suffering an injury caused by fouling a ball off his knee near the end of spring training. To begin the season, the 33-year-old has a walk and a hit in 10 plate appearances. With Daulton Varsho shifting to center field, Davis Schneider is starting in Kiermaier's lineup spot out in left.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Rejoins lineup Sunday

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier (knee) is starting in center field and batting seventh in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Phillies. The veteran outfielder exited Saturday's contest after fouling a pitch off his right knee, but he's back in the starting nine a day later. Kiermaier is set to begin the season as Toronto's primary center fielder.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Expected back soon

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier is expected to be ready to return Sunday or Monday after exiting Saturday's Grapefruit League contest when he fouled a ball off his right knee, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports. Kiermaier didn't need any imaging done and the feeling is that he could have stayed in the game had it been the regular season. He might be sore Sunday, but there isn't any long-term concern here.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Pops first spring homer

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers. The veteran center fielder led off the second inning by driving a Kenta Maeda offering into the bullpen in right-center field for his first long ball of the spring. Kiermaier is coming off his healthiest, and best, season since 2017, as he played in 129 games in 2023 and posted a .741 OPS with eight homers and 14 steals while anchoring the best defensive outfield in the majors by a number of metrics. Back in Toronto on a one-year, $10.5 million contract, the Blue Jays will be content if the 33-year-old can simply repeat that performance.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Re-ups with Toronto

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier signed a one-year, $10.5 million contract with the Blue Jays on Tuesday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports. Kiermaier played well for in Toronto in 2023, slashing .265/.322/.419 with eight home runs and 14 stolen bases over 129 games while winning another Gold Glove in center field. The 33-year-old stayed relatively healthy and isn't a great bet to do so again in 2024, but he remains a good fit with the Blue Jays. With Kiermaier back in tow, it's fair to wonder whether Toronto might now be out of the running for Cody Bellinger.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Resting Sunday

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier is not in Sunday's lineup against the Rays. With the Jays locked into a postseason spot, Kiermaier will get a few days to rest up. Daulton Varsho slides to center field while Cam Eden draws a start in left.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Produces two hits Friday

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier went 2-for-3 with a double and an RBI in Friday's 11-4 win over the Rays. The Blue Jays have often built in rest days for the historically injury-prone Kiermaier throughout the season, but he picked up his sixth consecutive start Friday as Toronto looks to solidify a wild-card spot. Assuming the Blue Jays are able to punch their ticket to the postseason, Kiermaier's speed and defensive prowess should be enough to assure him the bulk of the starts in center field in October, though he may still be at risk of losing work against left-handed pitching.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Sitting Friday

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier isn't in the Blue Jays' lineup Friday against the Rays. Kiermaier will get a breather to begin Toronto's series with Tampa Bay after going 4-for-10 and scoring four times during the Jays' series against the Yankees. Daulton Varsho will shift to center field in Kiermaier's absence while Whit Merrifield starts in left.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Takes seat Wednesday

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers. Kiermaier started the past five games and will receive a day off after he went 4-for-16 with a double, a triple, a solo homer and a stolen base during that stretch. Daulton Varsho will shift to center field while Whit Merrifield (groin) receives a start in left against Rangers southpaw Jordan Montgomery.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Goes yard Sunday

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a stolen base in Sunday's win over the Royals. Kiermaier's home run proved to be the difference after a seventh-inning solo blast put the Blue Jays up 3-2. It was his second long ball in eight games this month, and he's hitting .346/.370/.731 with three RBI, six runs and a 1:5 BB:K over that span. His stolen base was his 13th of the year, as he's notched double-digits for the first time since 2019. For the season, the 33-year-old is slashing .274/.332/.436 with eight homers, 34 RBI, 51 runs and a 25:74 BB:K in 353 plate appearances.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Sitting out versus lefty

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Oakland, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports. He'll grab a seat as the Athletics send left-hander JP Sears to the mound. Daulton Varsho will slide over to center field, with Whit Merrifield playing left and Davis Schneider occupying second base.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Collects three hits in win

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier went 3-for-4 with a double, one RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 7-1 win over the Athletics. Kiermaier has gone 6-for-15 (.400) over five games in September. The outfielder got the scoring started Tuesday with an RBI single in the seventh inning, sparking a six-run rally. He's hitting .274 with a .760 OPS, seven home runs, 33 RBI, 49 runs scored and 12 stolen bases over 109 contests overall. Kiermaier should continue to be a lineup regular versus right-handed pitchers. He was in the starting nine Tuesday versus lefty Ken Waldichuk, making this the third time in the last four games against southpaws that Kiermaier has started.

  • Blue Jays' Kevin Kiermaier: Homers in loss

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 8-7 loss to the Rockies. Kiermaier is finding some traction at the plate, going 5-for-14 (.357) over his last four games. The homer was his second in the last nine games, and he's up to seven long balls on the year. The veteran outfielder is slashing .271/.332/.422 with 32 RBI, 47 runs scored, 12 stolen bases, 15 doubles and five triples over 335 plate appearances.

    Rotowire
    Kiermaier will hit the bench Saturday against Cleveland. Kiermaier will hit the bench against lefty Logan Allen, with Daulton Varsho sliding to center field and Whit Merrifield moving out to left. Kiermaier has now sat against each of the last four southpaws the Blue Jays have faced.
